“Rolled Gold” is the term given to jewelry that is gold-filled or composed of a solid layer of gold bonded with heat and pressure to a base metal, usually brass. Rolled gold jewelry is usually made by rolling out sheets from which the jewelry is molded or “formed.”

This way of making jewelry was patented in England in 1817 and quickly became a prime source for better-made and higher-quality costume jewelry in the Victorian era. In the 1920s and 30s, it saw a resurgence in popularity and was used mainly in watches and fountain pens.

Rolled gold jewelry is ideal for those who wish to spend less and still look great or are worried about losing or misplacing very expensive jewelry.

Excellent Condition and very wearable

搭扣图案代表着 "紧紧依靠我"，而雕刻的常春藤叶则进一步强调了这一情感，因为常春藤叶也会紧紧依靠树木、栅栏等。

“轧金”指的是用黄金填充的首饰，或者是由一层固态黄金通过加热和加压的方式与一种贱金属（通常是黄铜）粘合而成的首饰。轧金饰品通常是通过轧制板材来制作的，然后在板材上成型或 "成形"。

这种首饰制作方法于 1817 年在英国获得专利，并在维多利亚时代迅速成为制作更精美、质量更高的服装首饰的主要来源。在 20 世纪二三十年代，这种方法再次流行起来，主要用于手表和钢笔。

这种“轧金”首饰非常适合那些希望花较少的钱，但仍然看起来非常漂亮的人，或者担心丢失或错放非常昂贵的首饰的人。
