Gold plated jewellery looks as expensive as jewellery made out of solid gold. At a fraction of the cost of similar looking fine jewellery, it makes a great choice for everyday wear. Our high quality gold jewellery plating will not wear off or tarnish with time.

Fine jewellery is traditionally made to classic designs, many times having predictable shapes and appearance. Less expensive fashion jewellery usually gives designers much greater scope for experimentation, trying bold new and unusual designs. On some occasions, those may be suited just for the unique tastes, but with such a great choice of gold plated jewellery, Avalaya offers to satisfy your taste for wither classic or quirky designs.

We constantly expand the range of our gold plated jewellery, adding the newest designs and following the latest trends in jewellery.

Feel free to browse our current range and choose a piece that appeals to you the most!

Barrettes, also known as hair clips or clasps, have their roots in ancient civilizations. In ancient Greece and Rome, women used hairpins and combs to secure their hairstyles. The modern barrette, however, is believed to have originated in Europe during the 18th century. Initially, barrettes were simple metal clips used to hold back stray hairs or secure a bun. Over time, they evolved to incorporate decorative elements, such as enamel, gemstones, and intricate designs.

Barrettes and hair clips come in a variety of styles, each suited to specific hair types, lengths, and styles.

Pin-back barrettes: These classic barrettes feature a pin or clasp on the back, securing them to the hair.

Slide-back barrettes: These barrettes have a sliding mechanism that allows them to be easily removed and repositioned.

Snap-back barrettes: These barrettes feature a snap or toggle closure, providing a secure fit.

Hair slides: These are long, thin barrettes designed to slide through hair sections, often used for up-dos and ponytails.

Bobby pins: Small, hairpin-like barrettes used to secure stray hairs or add volume to hairstyles.

Barrettes and hair clips serve multiple purposes:

Hair decoration: They add a decorative touch to hairstyles, whether used as a statement piece or to complement a overall look.

Hair management: They help keep stray hairs in place, securing styles such as buns, ponytails, and up-dos.

Hair volume: They can be used to add volume or texture to hairstyles, particularly for those with fine or limp hair.
