¿Qué significa el bermellón?? 925 Joyas de plata de primera ley bañadas en oro
I am a huge lover of vermeil jewellery but it is not a commonly known phrase. Gold Vermeil is simply thickly plated sterling silver jewellery.The thickness of the gold must be a minimum of 2.5 microns and the base metal must be sterling silver. Fashion and costume jewellery is often called gold plated which means that the plating is not very thick and the base metal is usually brass. All vermeil pieces should be stamped with the 925 mark to indicate that the silver is 92.5% plateado puro.
Vermeil is Sterling or fine silver base that has a thick gold plating. Jingying has a detailed description of vermeil as well as pros and cons.
En primer lugar – What is ‘Vermeil’?
Pronounced ‘Ver-May’, the Trade Standard for vermeil is a piece consisting of at least 92.5% plata (sterling silver is 92.5% and fine silver is 99.9%) coated with at least 2.5 micras (that’s 1/1000 of a millimeter) de oro – to ensure quality, the gold should be no less than 14K. The higher the gold content the better.
