How long does gold jewelry last?
Kurz gesagt:
Real gold jewelry (585/750) lasts a lifetime – and with proper care, generations. No fading, tarnishing, or flaking with real gold.
High-quality gold jewelry made of 585 or 750 gold lasts a lifetime – and with good care, even generations. It can be polished, enlarged, resized, reset, and engraved. No other everyday material is as regenerable.
What shortens the life of gold jewelry
- Chlorine water (swimming pool) – degrades alloys
- Acids from sweat and cosmetics
- Mechanical damage from hard work
- Sleeping with jewelry – abrasion from pillows
What extends the life of gold jewelry
- Daily wiping with a soft cloth

Conclusion
A well-maintained 585 gold ring from the 1970s still looks fabulous today. That's the difference in value compared to fashion jewelry.
