Vermeil Gold Necklaces & Pendants
Our vermeil gold necklaces give you a warm, lasting gold finish for a fraction of a solid-gold price. Vermeil is a thick 2.5-micron layer of 18K gold bonded over solid 925 sterling silver — far heavier than ordinary plating, so the colour stays rich. Most pendants are set with real, certified lab-grown diamonds that catch the light beautifully.
Honest about what vermeil is
Vermeil is a premium gold finish over sterling silver — it is not solid gold, and we never describe it that way. The difference from standard plating is the thick 2.5-micron 18K gold layer sitting on real 925 silver, not brass. The lab-grown diamonds are real diamonds, certified to SGL standard (IGI on request) — not cubic zirconia or American Diamond.

Frequently asked questions
Is a vermeil necklace solid gold?
No. Vermeil is a thick 2.5-micron layer of genuine 18K gold over solid 925 sterling silver — the look of gold at a far lower price. We always describe it as vermeil, not solid gold.
How is vermeil different from normal gold plating?
Standard plating is a very thin gold layer, often over brass. Vermeil uses a much thicker 2.5-micron layer of 18K gold on sterling silver, so it looks richer and lasts longer.
Are the diamonds real?
Yes. The lab-grown diamonds are real diamonds, chemically identical to mined ones, certified to SGL standard (IGI on request). They are not cubic zirconia or American Diamond.
Is the chain real silver?
Yes — solid 925 sterling silver (92.5% pure), BIS hallmarked, finished in 18K gold vermeil, never brass.
Will the gold wear off?
Vermeil's thick 18K layer is far more durable than regular plating. Keep it away from perfume, water and chemicals and store it dry, and the finish lasts for years.
Can I pay cash on delivery?
Vermeil and gold pieces are prepaid-only for security — pay easily by UPI, card or net banking.
Do you offer a warranty?
