Description:
This attractive and distinctive gold ratchet watch key features
decorative markings. It is rolled gold or gold plated. The watch key is
in very good antique condition.

Rolled gold or gold cased: A thin sheet of gold is laminated to a
lesser metal. The two layers of metal are heated under pressure to
fuse them together. Jewelry made from rolled gold wear well over
time. In modern times this is called gold filled or gold plated. Gold-
plated metal has a very thin layer of gold on the surface, usually
applied by the process of electroplating. This wears off quite fast.
