What’s the Difference Between Fine Jewellery and Demi-Fine Jewellery?

When it comes to investing in jewellery, understanding the different categories is essential. Among the most commonly compared types are fine jewellery and demi-fine jewellery. At first glance, they might appear similar, but there are key differences in terms of materials, price point, longevity, and purpose. Let’s explore these distinctions and why Carryallco's demi-fine jewellery might be the perfect everyday alternative to both fine jewellery and imitation pieces.


What is Fine Jewellery?

Fine jewellery refers to pieces made from solid precious metals like 18K or 22K gold, platinum, or sterling silver, often embedded with genuine precious gemstones such as diamonds, sapphires, rubies, or emeralds. These pieces are luxury investments and are often passed down through generations.

Key Characteristics:

  • Made of solid precious metals

  • Includes precious stones

  • Expensive and often requires safekeeping

  • Typically worn on special occasions


What is Demi-Fine Jewellery?

Demi-fine jewellery sits beautifully between fine and fashion (imitation) jewellery. It is typically made using high-quality materials like sterling silver or stainless steel, and plated with 18K gold or rhodium for a luxe finish. Often featuring semi-precious stones, demi-fine jewellery offers a perfect mix of elegance, durability, and affordability.

Key Characteristics:

  • Made of sterling silver or stainless steel

  • Plated with 18K gold or rhodium

  • Hypoallergenic and anti-tarnish

  • Features semi-precious stones

  • Affordable yet premium in appearance


How is Carryallco’s Demi-Fine Jewellery Better Than Imitation Jewellery?

At Carryallco, we take demi-fine jewellery to the next level with thoughtful craftsmanship and premium materials. Here’s how our collection stands out from typical fashion or imitation jewellery:

1. Materials That Matter

Our pieces are crafted with a base of high-quality stainless steel or 925 silver and plated with 18K gold using advanced PVD technology—ensuring a rich, premium finish that lasts longer than traditional electroplating.

2. Durability You Can Trust

Unlike imitation jewellery that tarnishes or breaks easily, Carryallco demi-fine jewellery is anti-tarnish, waterproof, and skin-safe. It’s built for everyday wear, whether you’re at work, at brunch, or on vacation.

We stand by our quality. Every piece of our demi-fine collection comes with a 5-year warranty on gold plating, giving you complete confidence in your purchase.

4. Better Than Fast Fashion

While imitation jewellery might offer trendy designs, they rarely last long or offer value. Carryallco combines trendy aesthetics with high-quality craftsmanship, ensuring your jewellery remains timeless and wearable for years.

  • Elegant enough to elevate any outfit
