GOLD VERMEIL:

Gold Vermeil is a sophisticated technique in luxury jewelry, involving the process of coating silver objects with a layer of gold. For a piece to be recognized as a Gold Vermeil Jewelry, it must be made exclusively from 925 Silver and be plated with at least 10 thousandths of 18k gold.

* The term VERMEIL has French origins and means "Golden Silver"

DOES THE SKIN TURN GREEN?

Choosing 925 silver with 18K gold plating is highly recommended for those looking to prevent allergies and the undesirable effect of green staining on the skin, something that can occur with certain plated jewelry. This is due to the absence of brass in the composition of silver, unlike plated pieces. Brass, a metal present in plated pieces, has the property of reacting with moisture in the skin, which can trigger allergies and cause green staining on the skin.

18k gold plated silver is made from 925 sterling silver and plated with three thick layers of gold. This combination of high-quality materials ensures that the piece is more resistant to corrosion and skin reaction, avoiding the problem of green staining that is common in gold plated pieces. Therefore, if you are looking for jewelry that will not cause this unwanted effect on your skin, 18k gold plated silver is a great choice.

DOES THE PIECE PEEL AND THE COLOR COME OFF?

Our gold-plated 925 silver pieces undergo a rigorous plating process with three layers of 20 thousandths of 18k gold, which provides significantly greater durability compared to other plating methods. After the gold plating, the pieces are coated with e-Coating, an innovative process that protects the piece against oxidation and wear, always keeping it looking like new.

This helps minimize the wear and tear of the gold color over time, maintaining the beauty and quality of the piece for longer. Our commitment is to provide quality jewelry that you can enjoy for a long time.

ADVANTAGE OF GOLD PLATED SILVER:

Gold-plated silver has advantages over plated silver because it uses silver (a precious metal) as a base, offering greater value, durability and resistance to corrosion, in addition to being hypoallergenic. Plated silver, made of base metals such as brass, is cheaper but less durable and can cause allergies. Thus, gold-plated silver is a superior intermediate option in terms of quality and aesthetics, ideal for those seeking sophistication without the cost of solid gold jewelry.
