Then gold vermeil is a popular choice.  But what does it actually mean, and how is it different from other jewelry?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h1 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What is gold vermeil?<\/h1>\n\n\n\n<p>Gold vermeil means that a piece of jewelry has a core of <a href=\"https:\/\/tavex.se\/hur-mater-man-renhet-i-silver\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">sterling silver<\/a> covered with a layer of gold. The gold should be at least 10 carats and the coating 2.5 microns thick to meet the gold vermeil standard, making it a more durable and exclusive variant of gold-plated jewelry. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Advantages of gold vermeil:<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>More affordable than <a href=\"https:\/\/tavex.se\/guld\/guldtackor\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">solid gold<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Thicker gold layer than usual gold plated<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Sterling silver core for high quality<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Luxurious gold finish without the high cost.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Can you swim with gold vermeil?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Although gold vermeil is durable, it is recommended to avoid swimming with jewelry of this type. Water and chemicals can affect <strong>the coating of gold<\/strong> over time. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Gold vermeil vs gold plated<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Unlike regular gold plating, which often has a very thin layer of gold, gold vermeil is <strong>thicker <\/strong>and therefore <strong>more durable<\/strong>. This makes gold vermeil a better option for those who want jewelry that lasts longer without paying for solid gold, such as 18k gold jewelry. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For those interested in gold-finished jewelry, such as gold-plated jewelry, you can explore <a href=\"https:\/\/kronograf.se\/kategori\/smycken\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">more options at Kronograf<\/a>, where there are several different styles to choose from.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">At Smyckesguld we only buy &amp; sell real gold<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>With us at Smyckesguld you will only find jewelry made of real gold, with at least 9 carats.
