Gold vermeil (pronounced ver-may) is a premium jewelry finish that bridges the gap between fine and demi-fine. To be considered true vermeil, a piece must meet specific U.S. standards:
A solid sterling silver base (never brass or mystery metals)
A thick layer of gold—at least 2.5 microns
Gold of at least 10K fineness
Because vermeil uses real precious metals—gold layered over sterling silver—it offers a luxurious look and lasting quality at a more accessible price than solid gold. It’s ideal for everyday pieces with a fine-jewelry feel.
Vermeil is more durable than traditional gold plating, but like all layered metals, it needs mindful care to preserve its shine. The layer of gold on top will wear over time.
How to Care for Vermeil Jewelry
Keep It Dry Water, sweat, chlorine, and salt can wear down the gold layer over time.
✔ Remove before showering, swimming, exercising, or applying lotion. Clean Gently Use a soft, dry cloth to lightly buff your piece.
✔ Avoid harsh polishing cloths, chemical cleaners, or ultrasonic cleaners (all can strip gold). Store Smart Keep vermeil jewelry in a small pouch or box to reduce scratching and exposure to air.
✔ Store each piece separately whenever possible. Avoid Direct Contact With Products Perfume, sunscreen, oils, and hairspray can dull or wear the finish.
✔ Apply products first; let them dry; then put on your jewelry. Wear It With Love Vermeil is meant to be cherished and enjoyed. With the right care, your pieces will age beautifully—gaining a soft, loved-in patina that adds character.
