18kt Gold Vermeil

We use the ancient technique of gold vermeil plating, where each piece is finished with a thick layer of high quality 18kt gold plate, and handcrafted from .925 sterling silver. Our gold vermeil process is proudly produced in Australia.

18kt Gold Vermeil FAQs

The longevity of your 18kt gold vermeil depends on the wearer, how often they wear the piece the elements it’s exposed to and how it is cared for. Our gold vermeil has an extra-thick layer of gold plating over a sterling silver base (at least 2.5 microns), which is significantly more durable than standard plated pieces. With the proper care, pieces of low abrasion, such as earrings and necklaces, can retain their exquisite lustre for years. Pieces of high abrasion, like rings, may show signs of wear sooner, but this can be managed with dedicated care and replating.

18kt gold vermeil (pronounced ver-may) is a unique, high-quality material which is a thick layer of 18kt gold (75% pure gold) that is bonded to a base of .925 sterling silver.

We use this technique to balance:

  • Elevated quality: It is superior to standard gold-plated jewellery, offering a richer, warmer colour and greater lasting power.
  • Conscious accessibility: It allows us to create designs that reflect the look and feel of solid gold, accessible for everyday wear and price ranges.
  • Hypoallergenic foundation: The sterling silver base ensures the piece is hypoallergenic, honouring those with sensitive skin.

Some of our most coveted gold jewellery gifts:

  • Interchangeable Charms & Hoops: Gift a pair of our classic hoops (like the Veneto Huggy) paired with a vibrant, energetic charm. This invites the receiver to express their creativity and align their energy daily.
  • Medallion Necklaces: A weighted medallion and talisman. Worn close to the heart, it is a constant source of inspiration and style.
  • Pearl Creations: Our Pearl earrings or necklaces set in gold vermeil are a statement of sophisticated, feminine energy, perfectly luminous and elegant.

Yes, 18kt gold vermeil is an excellent choice for everyday wear, especially when compared to lesser-quality plated jewellery. However, to maintain its opulent finish, it must be taken care of. Vermeil is strong, but it is not eternal like solid gold. We encourage you to wear it daily, but with consideration of how to protect it.
