Gold Vermeil
Not to be confused with regular gold plating, our vermeil (pronounced ver-may) is a thick layer of 18k solid gold on sterling silver. It lasts longer than regular gold plating and provides the look and feel of gold jewelry at a fraction of the price.
What to Know
Vermeil will naturally tarnish over time, especially when exposed to environmental factors like air pollution, moisture, and items that contain sulfur, however it is easy to restore the shine of gold vermeil jewelry with proper care and maintenance.
How to Store
Store in a dry place with the anti-tarnish strip included with your purchase. Our cases are lined in anti-tarnish microsuede to help slow tarnishing, a natural process for metal that can't be fully prevented.

How to clean gold vermeil jewelry
We add anti tarnish to all of our jewelry to prolong its beauty. Proactive maintenance is key. To keep tarnish from setting in, clean your pieces regularly by wiping them with a soft, dry cloth or using our Jewelry Care Kit.
Please note: Polishing cloths can be abrasive, so apply gentle pressure and don’t over-polish. Do not use steam cleaners or ultrasonic cleaners on vermeil jewelry.
If using our Jewelry Care Kit, make sure you dry your jewelry using a soft cloth before storing it. If your vermeil discolors use the polishing cloth to revive it.
