GOLD-PLATED: WHERE SILVER MEETS GOLD
Starting from this recycled silver base, we also create gold-plated jewelry. The process combines a silver structure with a thick 18-karat gold coating, applied through electrolysis. This time-honored technique deposits an even, lasting layer of gold, far more durable than simple gold plating.
Gold plating embodies a double standard: the strength of silver, the brilliance of gold. Every piece meets the same standards as our recycled 18-karat gold creations.
THE CRAFTSMANSHIP OF OUR MARAIS WORKSHOP
Every piece of recycled silver or gold-plated jewelry is crafted in our Marais workshop, just steps from the boutique. Shaping, hammering, engraving, setting, polishing: precise gestures that leave their mark and guarantee the uniqueness of each creation. This closeness, this local roots, reflects our commitment to a short supply chain that respects both materials and craftsmanship.
THE LIFE OF A PIECE OF JEWELRY
Silver and gold plating evolve over time: the oxidation of silver, the fading of gold plating, are part of their nature. These changes aren’t flaws, but an expression of the piece’s life. At the workshop, we take care of this ongoing upkeep: polishing, cleaning, replating. All gestures that extend their shine and support their journey from one generation to the next.
A COMMITMENT TO BEAUTY AND TO THE ENVIRONMENT
Choosing a Monsieur Paris piece in recycled silver or gold-plated jewelry means embracing a certain idea of jewelry: exacting, handmade, and responsible. It means choosing transformation over extraction, craftsmanship over disposability, slowness over the fleeting.
Each piece then becomes the reflection of a double promise: one of jewelry-making expertise, and one of environmental commitment.

At Monsieur Paris, every piece of recycled silver or gold-plated jewelry is made to last. The shine of these precious metals depends on attentive care, through simple gestures repeated day to day. Here are our tips for preserving their beauty over time.
