Care Guide for Gold Vermeil Jewelry

Keep Your Shine Lasting Longer

What is Gold Vermeil?

Gold vermeil (pronounced ver-may) is sterling silver coated with a thick layer of real 18k gold. It offers the luxurious look of solid gold at a more accessible price.

Tips to Maximize Longevity

Be Mindful of Moisture

Avoid prolonged exposure to water, pat jewelry dry if it gets wet, and store it in a dry place afterward.

Store Thoughtfully

Place each piece in a soft pouch or a jewelry box lined with anti-tarnish fabric. Store items separately to prevent scratches.

Avoid Harsh Chemicals

Apply lotions, perfumes, and sprays before putting on jewelry. These products can dull the gold's finish over time.

Clean with Care

Wipe gently using a soft, dry microfiber or jewelry cloth. Skip silver polishing cloths, as they may remove the gold layer.

Rotate Your Favorites

Gold vermeil is durable, but not solid gold.

Rotate as Needed

With wear, the gold layer may gently fade and many jewelers offer re-plating services.
