Why Gold Vermeil
Gold vermeil (pronounced “ver-may”) is a type of high-quality gold-plated jewelry. It consists of a thick layer of gold (at least 2.5 microns) over a base of sterling silver, making it a more affordable option compared to solid gold while maintaining durability and luxury.
Why gold vermeil is an excellent choice for jewelry
- Hypoallergenic: The sterling silver base makes it suitable for people with sensitive skin.
- Long-lasting: The thick gold layer ensures durability, especially when compared to regular gold-plated pieces.
- Cost-effective: It offers the appearance and quality of gold without the high price.
- Tarnish-resistant: While not as tarnish-proof as solid gold, it lasts longer than standard plated jewelry.
