Rhodium is a rare, silver-white hard metal of the platinum family. Rhodium is one of the most expensive precious metals on Earth, with a market price of $12,240/Oz, 6.6 times the January 2023 gold price.

Rhodium is resistant to corrosion and oxidation in humid air, increasing the durability of jewelry. Therefore, it is used to coat the outside of high-class White Gold and Silver Jewelry .

Benefits of Rhodium Plating

There are many advantages to rhodium plated jewelry:

  • Increases shine, gloss and durability; especially with engagement rings, wedding rings and diamond jewelry.
  • Better scratch resistance, especially with silver jewelry that will be less likely to tarnish.
  • Hypoallergenic (if you have a nickel allergy).

Rhodium plating durability

Because it's just a coating, it will wear down over time. The frequency of wearing jewelry affects the durability of the rhodium plating. Depending on the living environment and the sweat of each wearer, the plating wears off quickly and slowly. Periodically, jewelry needs to be re-plated with rhodium to keep its beauty for a long time.
