Essential Guide to Gold & Gemstones

Discover the differences between gold types and gemstones with our simple guide to help you choose and care for timeless jewellery.

What's the difference?

Gold Filled vs Gold Vermeil

Gold Vermeil uses a thick layer of gold (2.5 microns) over sterling silver, making it hypoallergenic and ideal for intricate, elegant designs. Gold Filled, with a thicker gold layer (5% of total weight) bonded to brass or copper, is highly durable and perfect for daily wear. While Vermeil suits refined, occasional pieces, Gold Filled offers everyday longevity and resistance to tarnish.

Their Values

Gold Filled delivers long-lasting durability, making it ideal for everyday jewellery with minimal maintenance. In contrast, Gold Vermeil offers hypoallergenic properties and a luxurious look at a more accessible price. Though Vermeil may require more care, its sterling silver base adds intrinsic value, making it perfect for special designs.

What's the difference?

Choose based on your needs

Opt for Gold Filled if you need durable, low-maintenance jewellery for daily wear. Choose Gold Vermeil* for sophisticated, hypoallergenic designs suited for special occasions. Both options combine beauty and value—pick the one that best aligns with your lifestyle and preferences.
