Gold vermeil, made to the US standard
10K-or-higher gold over 925 sterling silver, equivalent to at least 2.5 microns of fine gold — the minimum the US Federal Trade Commission sets for anything sold as “vermeil”.
What you get
925 silver underneath
Vermeil starts with sterling silver, not brass — so the piece is still precious metal if the gold wears.
At least 2.5 microns of fine gold
Counted the way the FTC counts it — as fine gold, so a lower-karat layer is made thicker. Far more durable than a thin flash of gold plating.
Your gold colour
Yellow or rose, in the karat you choose (10K or higher). Tell us your reference and we match it on the sample.
Thickness you can prove
If a retailer asks, we send pieces from your order to an accredited third-party laboratory to measure the gold layer, at cost.

- Naming
- In the US, call it vermeil only if it meets the FTC guide, as ours does. Elsewhere, “gold-plated sterling silver” with the thickness is the safe description.
