No it is not plated. There is a huge difference between filled and plated. Plated will wear down quickly and chip and peel. Filled is silver or gold, in this case silver, is bonded to a jewelers metal and has the same characteristics as solid silver without the price. It lasts and will not wear away. It's as good as solid silver but doesn't cost as much . It will shine up like new if taken care of. I usually put in the description if it is stamped or not. Thanks
