Why Gold Shines in Jewelry Craftsmanship

Gold is the feel-good metal, the serotonin of jewelry. Wear vintage and antique gold necklaces, watches, gold bracelets or gold rings and you feel happy, you feel dressed, you feel, well, yourself. 

Gold, especially yellow gold, with its rich patina and ancient pedigree going back thousands of years, is the steady standby, the well-mannered metal of choice. Any discussion of this lustrous metal comes down to a basic truth: Gold is elementary, my dear. Gold jewelry that couples the mystique of the metal with superb design and craftsmanship achieves the status of an enduring classic. Many luxury houses have given us some of our most treasured and lasting examples of gold jewelry over the years.

Since its founding, in 1837, Tiffany Co. has built its reputation on its company jewelry as well as its coterie of boutique designers, which has included Jean Schlumberger, Donald Claflin, Angela Cummings and Elsa Peretti. There are numerous gold Tiffany classics worth citing. Some are accented with gemstones, but all stand out for their design and the workmanship displayed.

For the woman who prefers a minimalist look, the Tiffany Co. twist bangle (thin, slightly ovoid) is stylishly simple. For Cummings devotees, signature pieces feature hard stone inlay, such as her pairs of gold ear clips inlaid with black jade (a play on the classic Chanel black and tan), or bangles whose design recalls ocean waves, with undulating lines of lapis lazuli and mother-of-pearl. And just about any design by the great Jean Schlumberger is by definition a classic.

Even had he eschewed stones and diamonds, Southern-born David Webb would be hailed for the vast arsenal of heavy gold jewelry he designed. Gold, usually hammered or textured in some manner, defines great David Webb jewelry. The self-taught jeweler made very au courant pieces while drawing inspiration from ancient and out-of-the-way sources — East meets West in the commanding gold necklaces made by Webb in the early 1970s. The same could be said for his endlessly varied gold cuffs.

In Europe, many houses have given us gold jewelry that sets the highest standard for excellence, pieces that were highly sought after when they were made and continue to be so. 

Numerous designs from Cartier are homages to gold. There are the classic Trinity rings, necklaces and bracelets — trifectas of yellow, white and rose gold. As a testament to the power of love, consider the endurance of the Cartier Love bracelet.

Aldo Cipullo, Cartier’s top in-house designer from the late 1960s into the early ’70s, made history in 1969 with the Love bracelet. Cipullo frequently said that the Love bracelet was born of a sleepless night contemplating a love affair gone wrong and his realization that “the only remnants he possessed of the romance were memories.” He distilled the urge to keep a loved one close into a slim 18-karat gold bangle. 

BVLGARI and its coin jewelry, gemme nummarie, hit the jackpot when the line launched in the 1960s. The line has been perennially popular. BVLGARI coin jewelry features ancient Greek and Roman coins embedded in striking gold mounts, usually hung on thick link necklaces of varying lengths. In the 1970s, BVLGARI introduced the Tubogas line, most often made in yellow gold. The Tubogas watches are classics, and then there is the Serpenti, the house's outstanding snake-themed watches and bracelets.

A collection called Monete that incorporated the gold coins is one of several iconic BVLGARI lines that debuted in the 1970s and ’80s, catering to a new generation of empowered women. Just as designers like Halston and Yves Saint Laurent were popularizing fuss-free ready-to-wear fashion for women on the go, BVLGARI offered jewels to be lived in

Since Van Cleef Arpels opened its Place Vendôme doors in 1906, collection after collection of jewelry classics have enchanted the public. As predominantly expressed in a honeycomb of gold, there is the Ludo watch and accessories, circa the 1920s, and the golden Zip necklace, 1951, whose ingenious transformation of the traditional zipper was originally proposed by the Duchess of Windsor. Van Cleef's Alhambra, with its Moroccan motif, was introduced in 1968 and from the start its popularity pivoted on royalty and celebrity status. It remains one of VCA’s most popular and collected styles.

Mention must be made of Buccellati, whose name is synonymous with gold so finely spun that it suggests tapestry. The house’s many gold bracelets, typically embellished with a few or many diamonds, signified taste and distinction and are always in favor on the secondary market. Other important mid-20th-century houses known for their gold-themed jewelry include Hermès and Ilias Lalaounis.

Questions About Omega Gold Plated
  • 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022

  • 1stDibs ExpertFebruary 17, 2023
    Whether Omega watches are gold depends on the timepiece. The luxury watchmaker does make pieces out of genuine rose, white and yellow gold, but also manufactures timepieces out of steel and other metals. Shop a collection of Omega watches on 1stDibs.
  • 1stDibs ExpertNovember 1, 2023
    Yes, Omega watches are real gold. Many gold-tone Omega timepieces are made from solid 18-karat gold, but the luxury watchmaker also produces its own unique gold alloys. An example is Bronze Gold, a 9-karat gold designed to develop a rich patina over time. Explore a wide range of Omega gold watches on 1stDibs.
  • 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022

  • 1stDibs ExpertNovember 8, 2023
    How much gold is in an Omega Seamaster varies from piece to piece. Omega produces watches that are solid gold, plated with gold, filled with gold and capped in gold, and the amount of gold in terms of its actual weight varies based on the size of the watch as well. Generally, Omega uses 18-karat gold, which is 75% gold and 25% base metal. Shop a wide variety of Omega Speedmaster watches on 1stDibs.
  • 1stDibs ExpertFebruary 22, 2021
    Gold plated items contain real gold, but are mostly composed of a different base metal. Generally, gold plated objects are made from copper or silver with a very thin layer of gold over the base metal.
  • 1stDibs ExpertApril 26, 2024
    Yes, gold plating does tarnish in some cases. Compounds in the air, sweat, beauty products and cleaning products can react with metals and cause discoloration. To keep your gold-plated jewelry looking great, follow the maker's care and storage instructions and remove it before swimming, showering, applying skin care products and cosmetics and working with household chemicals. Shop a variety of gold jewelry on 1stDibs.
  • 1stDibs ExpertNovember 2, 2023
    One way to tell if your Omega watch is real gold is to look at the reference number. Most Omega timepieces have a two-letter material code before this number. Once you've located the code, you can use trusted online resources to determine what metal corresponds with it. For example, BA and BD represent 18-karat yellow gold, while BB and BP refer to 18-karat rose gold. Explore a large selection of Omega watches on 1stDibs.
  • 1stDibs ExpertApril 16, 2024
    Whether Swarovski gold plating tarnishes varies. When exposed to sweat, salty air, chemicals or other substances, any type of gold-plated jewelry may develop discoloration. Following Swarovski's care and storage instructions can reduce the risk of tarnishing. Generally, you should avoid wearing jewelry when showering, swimming, applying skin care products or working with household chemicals to protect it from discoloration and damage. Explore an assortment of Swarovski jewelry on 1stDibs.
  • 1stDibs ExpertDecember 17, 2024
    Whether gold-plated watches are valuable varies. Gold-plated watches generally contain very little gold, as they are primarily a base metal, to which a thin layer of gold alloy is applied as a finish. As a result, the timepieces typically don't have much value on the scrap market. However, a gold-plated watch may have value based on its age, maker, model, condition and other factors. A certified appraiser or experienced jeweler can help you determine how much your watch may be worth. Find a wide range of gold watches on 1stDibs.
  • 1stDibs ExpertMay 5, 2023
    Whether Dunhill lighters are gold-plated varies. Some pieces do feature genuine 18-karat yellow gold plating, while others are made of materials like sterling silver, brass, chrome and lacquer. On 1stDibs, shop a selection of Dunhill lighters from some of the world's top sellers.
  • 1stDibs ExpertFebruary 17, 2023
    Whether the Chanel logo on a handbag is gold-plated depends on the age of the piece. Up until 2008, Chanel hardware featured 24-karat gold plating. Bags manufactured in 2008 or after have gold-toned hardware that isn't genuine gold. Shop a range of Chanel handbags on 1stDibs.
  • 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022

  • 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022
