Gold Vermeil Necklaces - Get the Luxurious Look of Gold for Less
What is 24-Karat Vermeil?
Solid gold is an ultra luxurious metal but its lofty price makes it less than ideal for many types of jewelry pieces. Gold vermeil is a form of gold that was developed to make fine jewelry and other items made from gold less expensive. The metal consists of a layer of sterling silver to which a thick layer of gold is permanently bonded. In the case of 24-karat gold vermeil, the gold used is 100 percent pure and contains no additional alloys.
The Benefits of Vermeil
A 24-karat gold vermeil necklace offers many benefits that make it a wise investment for your jewelry collection. Not only is 24-karat gold vermeil less expensive than solid 24-karat gold, but it's also more durable, as the inclusion of the sterling silver provides a strong base for the more delicate gold. Compared to 24-karat gold-plated jewelry, a gold vermeil piece generally offers double the amount of genuine gold, creating a surface that is less likely to wear and fade.
Features of Our Vermeil Necklaces
In the John S. Brana Handmade Jewelry Collection, we feature gorgeous gemstone statement necklaces that are accented with 24-karat gold vermeil. You'll find the precious metal both in the designs of the decorative clasps and the beading used in our designs.
