A: Plating is a thin layer, so it can wear off with time, exposing the material underneath. It is recommended to take extra care with plated jewelry for this reason, such as only wearing for special occasions, removing the item when sleeping, swimming, and showering, etc. and storing your plated jewelry somewhere safe, away from other jewelry that could scratch it. Do not use jewelry cleaners on plated jewelry, as it will speed up the wear of the plating, quickly revealing the base metal underneath.
