Nickel
The most economical silver tone finish, a hard layer of nickel electroplate provides a high degree of durability without a high price, but may lose some luster with age.
Rhodium
A bright and brilliant silver tone finish that will not tarnish; a great combination of shine and durability.
Gold
A gold electroplated finish applied over a nickel base provides a gold finish that is tarnish-resistant, but may show some wear over time.
Rhodium Plus
Heavy silver tone electroplated layers combined with our extremely hard protective coating produce a brilliant finish that will stand the test of time. (Referred to as 'Sil-Ray' from Smith & Warren or'Rho-Glo' from Blackinton.)
Gold Plus
The most durable gold finish, combining heavy electroplated layers of 24K gold with an extremely hard protective clear coat, the result is a gold finish that outshines the competition. (Referred to as 'Gol-Ray' from Smith & Warren or'Hi-Glo' from Blackinton.)
Two-Tone
The best of both worlds, our 'Plus' finishes combine to form a two tone finish that is bright, durable and consistent.
Premium Gold
The ultimate fine gold finish, our thickest layer of 24K gold plate and our ultra durable clear coat, provides a presentation quality finish; an excellent choice for awards, gifts and display badges. (Referred to as 'Cote D’Or' from Smith & Warren or'Karat-Klad' from Blackinton.)
Black
A gun metal black tone finish, a hard layer of black nickel provides a high degree of durability without a high price, but may lose some luster with age. (Matte Black also available.)
