History: What Is Gold-plated Jewelry? Gold-plated jewelry is a type of metal jewelry covered with a very thin layer of real gold. The process was invented in 1805 by Italian chemist Luigi Brugnatelli who plated a very thin gold layer on top of silver. Vintage pieces tend to have thicker plating than modern designs.
Magnetic clasps in jewelry are a relatively recent innovation, with their popularization tied to the development of strong, modern magnets like neodymium magnets in the late 20th century. While magnets themselves have been known and used for millennia, the ability to create strong, reliable magnetic clasps for jewelry became practical with advancements in magnet technology, particularly after the invention of neodymium magnets in the 1980s.
