An article (12) is coated with a multi-layer decorative and protective coating having the appearance of stainless steel. The coating comprises a nickel layer (13) on the surface of said article (12). The nickel layer (13) can be comprised of monolithic layer or the nickel layer can be comprised of a semi-bright nickel layer (14) and a bright nickel layer (16). Vapor deposited, at relatively low pressures, on the nickel layer (13) is a refractory metal nitride, refractory metal alloy nitride, or reaction products of refractory metal or refractory metal alloy, nitrogen and oxygen (32) wherein the nitrogen content of the refractory metal nitride, refractory metal alloy nitride or reaction products of refractory metal or refractory metal alloy, nitrogen and oxygen (32) is from about 3 to about 22 atomic percent.
