The Art of Gold Vermeil

Gold vermeil begins with sterling silver, then receives a substantial layer of gold that is built to hold warmth without the weight of solid metal. At Reflet, the finish is chosen for pieces that need a soft glow, close contact with the skin, and enough durability for regular wear.

Before plating, each surface is prepared by hand. Edges are softened, closures are checked, and the final polish is kept restrained so the gold does not feel overly bright. The result is a richer tone than standard plating, with the quiet depth that makes chains, cuffs, and small pendants feel personal rather than decorative.

Why we use it

Vermeil lets us balance everyday ease with a precious finish. It suits designs that are meant to move through a week of work, dinner, travel, and rest, gaining a gentle patina instead of demanding constant attention.
