A decorative article 1 includes a substrate 2 formed mainly of plastic material, an oxide coating 3 formed mainly of metal oxide material provided on the substrate 2 , and a metal coating 4 formed mainly of metal material provided on a surface of the oxide coating 3 on a side opposite the surface of the oxide coating 3 that is adjacent the substrate 2 . It is desirable that the oxide coating 3 is formed of a material including at least one material selected from among TiO<SUB>2 </SUB>and CrO. It is further desirable that the metal coating 4 is formed of a material including at least one material selected from among Ag, Cr, Au, Al, Ti, Sn, and In. It is still further desirable that the sum of the average thickness of the oxide coating 3 and the average thickness of the metal coating 4 is 0.02 to 2.5 mum. |
