Vermeil Gold Plating Explained

Vermeil Gold Plating explained

Gold plating bonds to different base metals differently. For example, gold 'clings' onto sterling silver better than zinc, copper, or brass. So, gold vermeil, (gold electroplating on top of sterling silver) usually lasts longer.

The thickness of gold in gold vermeil is usually 0.025 microns. The Pagoni RTW vermeil plating over Sterling Silver is much thicker at 0.5 microns of Rhodium, 18K gold or rose gold.
