Vermeil is an affordable substitute for gold! Vermeil is sterling silver electroplated with 22kt gold plating. Electroplating coats the sterling with a thin layer of gold. Vermeil items have the yellow brilliance of high karat gold at a fraction of the cost; yet, the product is of much higher quality than plated base metals since the Vermeil base is Sterling Silver.
