Rose gold cord ends (Rose Gold, code RG) are metal end caps with a glossy finish in a warm tone with a pink sheen, between gold and copper. They give the cord a modern, feminine and slightly jewellery-like look and are favoured in womenswear, athleisure and yoga wear, lingerie, cosmetic bags and women's sneakers. At Polkom the Rose Gold finish is available for all 64 cord end styles.
What rose gold looks like
Rose Gold is the most “fashionable” of the glossy finishes. The tone is softer than yellow gold and warmer than silver, and the pink sheen shows best in daylight. On faceted and diamond styles the detail sparkles like jewellery, while on spheres and smooth cylinders it is more delicate.
Rose gold is sensitive to the surrounding colours: next to pink fabric it looks more saturated, next to grey more neutral and coppery. That is why it is always best to compare a cord end sample directly with the fabric and the cord. The colour in photos is approximate.
Which products and brands it suits
- Womenswear – dresses and blouses with ties, sweatshirts and hoodies in pastel tones, knitted cardigans.
- Athleisure and yoga wear – leggings with a drawcord, joggers, sweatshirts and sets, matching snap buttons and zips in rose gold.
- Lingerie and loungewear – pyjamas, nightdresses and robes with thin cords.
- Cosmetic bags and accessories – toiletry bags, gift pouches, phone and jewellery cases.
- Women's sneakers – laces with a metal aglet as a recognisable detail.
- Home textiles – decorative cushions, velvet covers, curtains with ties in bedrooms and children's rooms.
Rose Gold is often chosen by brands targeting a younger female audience, by cosmetics and lifestyle brands, and for seasonal collections with a pastel palette.
Combinations with the cord colour
Rose gold looks best next to soft and warm tones:
- powder pink, peach, pale pink and nude;
- white, ivory and light grey;
- burgundy, cherry and dark plum – for a more elegant contrast;
- navy and black – the pink metal stands out clearly;
- velvet and satin cords – they enhance the jewellery effect.
With cool blues, greens and neon colours the result is less predictable; if the collection is in these tones, compare rose gold and silver samples before choosing.

Rose gold and branding
Rose gold is often part of a brand's visual identity – repeated in the logo, packaging, labels and metal accessories. If you want the cord end to carry the logo, choose a style with a flat surface: the flat styles from the NK-3xx series, the geometric shapes or the larger round cord ends. Send us the logo in vector format – we will check whether its details are large enough for engraving or relief on the chosen style and send a sample. You will find more about personalised accessories on the logo accessories page.
Care and durability
Glossy rose gold keeps its look longest when scratching and harsh chemicals are avoided:
- recommend a delicate programme and washing inside out or in a laundry bag;
- avoid bleach, chlorine-based products and prolonged contact with perfume and cosmetics;
- do not iron directly on the metal;
- before the run, wash a sample of the product according to the care label.
For cosmetic bags and accessories that often touch hard surfaces, choose more compact styles – spheres and short bells wear less than long tubes.
How to order rose gold cord ends
Choose a style from the metal cord end catalogue and add RG to the code – for example NK-704-RG. The minimum quantity is 1000 pcs per style and colour. Send us a sample of the cord or its diameter: the openings in the catalogue are approximate and we confirm them with a sample. Flat, geometric and larger round styles can carry an engraved or raised logo.
