Gold vermeil, or just vermeil, is a term used to refer to jewellery or other items made of silver and coated with gold. The word “vermeil” comes from French and is pronounced “ver-may.” The main difference between vermeil and gold-plated/gold-filled jewellery is that vermeil items have a base made of 925 sterling silver, whereas plated and filled pieces can be made with a variety of metals. These chains have 1 micron thickness to provide an extra durable plating.
This is a beautiful gift for someone you love or an indulgent treat to yourself (you deserve it).
Each necklace comes complete with a jewellery box.
The pendant in the photograph may not be the exact one you receive as no two natural pieces are the same size or shape. It will however be very similar.
