Solid Gold and Sterling Silver are the longest lasting materials for jewellery - and they have the price tag to match, and can still lose lustre over many years.

Gold Filled is a system of making jewellery that involves bonding 14 or 18ct Gold under extreme heat to a base metal (usually silver or brass). Most plated jewellery usually only has a thin 0.5% gold coating electroplated onto a base, which is why it often tarnishes quickly and wears off.

Gold Filled has a 5% level of solid gold and is more water resistant, has a warm gold colour, has no nickel or nasties in, and is longer lasting than normal plated and higher quality.

Gold Vermeil is classed as Demi-fine jewellery. It contains totally precious metal (925 Sterling Silver with a 2.5 or 3 micron 14 or 18k Gold layer ‘melted’/bonded to the top) It’s expensive because of the weight of precious metal gold and silver used, and the techniques used to make it.

The colour of gold is determined by two factors:

• The type of metal alloys included
• The percentage of each metal alloy

Natural gold and colour-saturated base alloys are what give yellow gold jewellery its rich shine. The alloys most commonly used, are copper with a red hue, and silver featuring a green hue. An expert mixture of copper, silver and pure gold gives this precious metal its signature warmth.

Gold-filled and vermeil pieces can still tarnish, but it takes special circumstances for that to happen, like excessive chemicals and water based use. Even though it’s an alloy, the thick layer on gold-filled pieces helps prevent tarnishing, because pure gold doesn’t tarnish.
