Pronounced "vehr-may" a thick layer of gold plating is deposited onto a solid sterling silver base. To be legally called "vermeil." the gold layer needs to be at least 2.5 microns thick.

This is a great option for people with sensitive skin. It is not as strong as Gold Filled but still a great option.

Suggested Wear: to prolong the luster and plating of your Vermeil jewelry be careful of hard water exposure. chemicals in shampoos. ocean salt water. chlorine in pools. heavy metals from sweat. Because Vermeil is plated we do suggest occasional wear and to store in a dry area.
