Gold vermeil is a type of gold jewellery that’s made to last. The base metal is Sterling SIlver which means your piece is made from precious metals only. A thick layer of gold is then electroplated over the base metal. While it may sound similar to gold plated jewellery, gold vermeil jewellery has a much thicker layer of gold. This means it is less likely to fade, tarnish, or wear off like gold plated jewellery.

Sterling Silver:
Over time metals can tarnish due to atmospheric elements such as exposure to oxygen and skin acidity. The level of skin acidity differs in all people and higher levels will cause oxidisation in jewellery to occur faster. The best way to clean your silver or gold jewellery is with Silvo or Brasso and a soft cotton cloth, alternatively you can use warm soapy water and a soft brush, rinse with hot water and dry with a soft cloth. You can prevent your jewellery tarnishing by storing it in an airtight bag or container and by only putting it on after you’ve applied lotions or sprayed perfumes.

Gold Plated Jewellery:
Extra care should be taken to prolong the lifespan of your plated jewellery. In order to do this avoid bringing your plated jewellery into contact with perfumes, oils, lotions and chemicals, rather only wear your jewellery once you are done working with those substances. You should also remove your plated jewellery when you are exercising, swimming or in the shower or bath.
