Demi-Fine Jewellery vs Fine: Why Gulban’s 18K Gold Plated Pieces Win
Demi-Fine vs Fine vs Fashion Jewellery
What's the Difference and Which One to Go For?
When selecting jewellery, it almost feels like entering a labyrinth of buzz terms; fine jewellery, fashion jewellery, and the relatively new demi-fine jewellery. Each is good for its own thing, but if you're not clear which one actually suits your style, your wallet, and your lifestyle, you're not alone.
At Gulban, we believe in jewellery that not just wears well, but also feels good. So let's demystify these categories for you to help you pick what is really meant for you.
Fine Jewellery: For the Forever Moments
Fine jewellery is luxury in its most unadulterated form. Made of solid gold, platinum, or pure silver, and set with real gemstones such as diamonds, emeralds, or rubies, these are crafted to last lifetimes.
Consider heirlooms, engagement rings, and mementos. These types of jewellery hold sentimental value, and a hefty price.
Best for:
- Weddings and grand life milestones
- Long-term investments
- Jewellery collection
But there's a catch: While high-end jewellery is undoubtedly timeless, it's not something most people wear on a regular basis every day. It's sophisticated, but frequently stored away for special moments.
Fashion Jewellery: Trendy, Fun… and Fleeting
Fashion jewelry, also referred to as costume jewelry, is created with base metals such as brass or nickel, and may include synthetic or imitation gemstones. It's trendy, playful, and inexpensive, which makes it perfect for trying out new fashions.
But that's why it costs so little. With time, the pieces can tarnish, chip, or irritate the skin. They're designed for the moment and not for the memory.
Best for:
- Occasional wear
- Trying out styles
- Bargain fashion accessorizing
The catch? Fashion jewellery never lasts long. So while your wallet may thank you right now, your future self may be left with dull, worn-out pieces.
Demi-Fine Jewellery: Every Day Luxury, Redesigned
Now let's discuss the best of both worlds:
Demi-Fine Jewellery
This category merges the good from both worlds, affordability and quality.
At Gulban, we create demi-fine jewellery from superior materials such as 18K gold plating and then put an extra layer of electrophoretic coating to prevent any sort of skin allergy. They appear and feel luxurious as well as skin-safe to wear, yet without the exorbitant price of fine jewellery.
Why Demi-Fine is lovable?
- Hypoallergenic which means entirely safe on skin to wear
- Doesn't tarnish (anti-tarnish) like fashion jewellery
- Feels luxe but costs reasonably
- Ideal for daily wear, office attire, and even a special night out
Ideal for:
- Contemporary women looking for luxury without the indulgence
- Daily glamour
- Gift-giving, self-indulgence, and building an eternally beautiful collection
