Are they plated? No, they’re…”filled”? But the gold wouldn’t be just on the inside, right? No, it’s the gold on the outside that makes the beads shiny and desirable, so again, what does “gold filled” mean?
According to Ebay’s “Silver & Gold Buying Guide & Definitions”, “Gold Filled is another material that is overlaid by a mechanical process with a layer of gold” [continued].
