Simply put, black rhodium is a way to coat your piece in a rich, dark grey metal, giving it a unique ‘black gold’ look. You may be familiar with the term “dipping,” as it’s often used when referring to the electromagnetic plating on white gold. Black rhodium is the same process, just a deep grey color. Rhodium is part of the platinum family and works extremely well. It is semi-permanent, meaning it will fade naturally throughout your lifetime; however, we will re-coat your piece every time it comes in for its yearly inspection to ensure it looks its best! We are happy to “dip” your piece in either black or white rhodium by request.
