Aurate New York earns mixed reviews: many praise the brand’s durable solid-gold pieces, elegant minimalist designs, and long-lasting shine on vermeil necklaces, hoops, and rings, while others report late deliveries, poor customer service, and colorless gemstones that don’t match images. Reviews indicate solid gold holds up beautifully over years, but gold vermeil can fade or feel plasticky, and some pieces bend easily or require repeated repairs.

Really love this necklace for layering. It's also bold enough to wear alone. I purchased it in gold vermeil and so far it has maintained its shine. Aurate also has a really awesome warranty that makes it worth it

This is my third purchase from this brand: I’ve really appreciated the quality of their jewelry, especially its focus on recycling metals. I purchased these earrings as part of a sale, and they are beautiful. I didn’t see the cut of the sapphires clearly and/or didn’t notice the heart shaped cut of the sapphires (I know, big clue in the name 🙄) and it’s not what I’d would have picked if I had: that’s entirely my fault, and doesn’t detract from the product. They are lovely, high quality and at an unbeatable price.

I bought the wave white sapphire tennis necklace for my birthday because it was 30% off for Black Friday. I’ve been looking at it for quite some time but it was a bit of a spontaneous decision to buy it. The necklace itself is fine, came as described. The only thing that left a bad taste in my mouth was that 1, the return window is 15 days, and 2, they recently increased the price of this necklace by almost $100. When I asked customer service why the price went up, they said it was due to the increase in the price of silver, which is fine. But when I asked why they didn’t notify their customers they said it was because not all silver pieces were affected, only some. The price increase happen sometime between Black Friday and Christmas, so I find it an odd time to take price increases on popular items that rarely go on sale, like this necklace. I ended up returning it because I could get really diamonds for the money I spent on it.

I got the Aurate x Michelle Choi Gold vermeil on Silver bracelet with blue topaz. Honestly, not impressed my the quality it has a plastic feel to it. And the colour of the gold does not compare to 18k.


I got an anklet as a gifted item from Aurate and I've been wearing them ever since I got them and it still looks as pretty as from the first day.

I have purchased a bracelet and a ring from them. Overall I find their prices reasonable and they run frequent sales. I also had a great experience with their customer service.
I super love their minimalist stud earring designs (I have the midi gold bar earrings -- I've seen it on some acquaintances and TV shows, it's a discreet IYKYK brand). I love that you can easily customize according to color tone, gold quality, and whether your purchase comes in solid gold or gold vermeil. Prices are reasonable.

Big fan of this brand. I bought a couple of the vermeil rings and never took them off. The gold faded, so I just upgraded to real gold so I won’t have a fading issue. Worth the money if you go for real gold, not vermeil.
I love their jewelry. A 10/10 for everything: the variety of designs they offer, the solid gold factor (as I get older, I only buy solid gold jewelry now for the sustainability and long-lasting factor), and the price points.
I got a couple of rings from Aurate and feel that they are of higher quality compared to other brands and a bit thicker. They are still pretty thin so bend easily but I feel Aurate has a great selection of designs and pricing (especially on sale).
Simple and high quality. I shopped with them in SF, and they have great customer service in-store. I prefer Aurate to Mejuri since Aurate has a lot more rose gold options the details seem better for the price. Plus, lifetime warranty. The pretty packaging the rings come in makes for a nice unboxing experience.

I have a few gold rings from Aurate - one that I've had for at least 4 years, another that is relatively new. Overall, both have held up incredibly well - I pretty much never take them off and they look as good as new. Love the unboxing as well - can't comment on the shipping as my second ring was through a sample sale.
Reviewing a gold vermeil ring. It's cute, easily stackable and good quality. I've had it for over a year now and it maintains it's gold shine!
I wear their gold vermeil hoops everyday and they’re great quality at an accessible price point!
I treated myself to 3 thin gold rings back in 2018, and they've held up beautifully! I loved the tiny pouch they came in, and they're my favorite pieces of jewelry to-date.

I have gotten several rings and earring pairs sent back for repair a total of 6 or 7 times. The only reason it isn’t more is because I’m tired of doing it and I refuse to send back my rings that aren’t gold and my broken earrings once again. Aurate is simply not what they advertise and their “lifetime warranty” is so you will buy it without knowing the quality isn’t what they claim and have to ship it back over and over again. Customer service is poor on top of that.

Order was 2 weeks late. No notice from them. I had to reach out multiple times after projected ship date to get an answer. Yet they kept advertising sales. Ring showed up looking different than images. Blue aquamarine and pink morganite had barely any color. You'd have to look really closely to see any hues of color. You should only buy from them if you like your items late and not as described. They are a poorly run social media brand, nothing more.

Late delivery. Awful customer service & experience.

Wouldn't recommend getting one for a gift since it may not arrive on time and you wouldn't get a proper help from the support team.
