Also, only a very thin layer of rhodium is necessary to cover white gold.That brings us to why plating yellow gold is problematic. Rhodium costs ten times as much as gold. Since a much thicker layer of rhodium is needed to cover yellow gold than white gold, and because the yellow gold will really show when the rhodium wears away, yellow gold will need frequent and expensive replating.If you decide to plate any gold item, make sure you go to a reputable jeweler or the results will be very poor.
