Robust rhodium coating

The galvanic rhodium coating with the very valuable platinum by-metal rhodium has a high reflective capacity and is also chemically and mechanically very robust. The excellent resistance to wear is particularly evident in the rhodium plating of white gold.

Rhodium is also highly resistant to abrasion during electroplating and offers excellent resistance to corrosion, especially when black rhodium is used. Black rhodium plating also gives the precious surface a deep, modern look.
