Metal finishes for a smarter look
Gold and silver are the finishes that make an accessory look like jewellery: a metal link strap on a watch, a chain strap on a phone, a polished ring holder on the back of a case. They go with almost any colour, and they are the natural partner for a phone with a metal frame. This page gathers everything offered in gold or silver, from watch straps and cases to cables and adapters.
How a product gets onto this page
Products are filed here by the colours they are offered in. A product that comes in gold or silver, as one of its colour choices or in its own name, is on this page, and on the page for each of its other colours too. Gold and silver share this page, so read the colour name on each choice. So the first photo on a product may show another colour. Choose gold or silver from the colour choices on the product page before you add it to your basket.

Solid metal, plating and your skin
Gold and silver here are colours, not precious metals. Some products are solid metal, such as the stainless steel watch straps, and others are plastic or alloy with a metal-coloured finish. Each product says what it is made of where the maker states it. If metal against your skin gives you a rash, take care with straps and chains: the NHS names nickel in jewellery as a common cause of allergic skin reactions.
A metal case can also slow wireless charging. Apple says to take off a thick, metal or battery case if wireless charging is slow. The guide to wireless charging explains why.
Questions people ask about gold and silver accessories
Is the gold real gold?
No. Gold and silver are the colours of the finish. Read each product page for what it is made of.
Why is a product here shown in another colour?
Because gold or silver is one of the colours it comes in, and the first photo shows another. Choose gold or silver from its colour choices.
