Product FAQs
Gold vermeil (pronounced "ver-may") is a legally regulated term that refers to high quality gold-plated jewelry. It has a thick layer of gold plating of at least 2.5 microns thick over a sterling silver base, while cheap gold-plated and gold-filled jewelry use a thin layer of gold over brass or copper as their base metals. They are susceptible to tarnish, and the thin layer of gold will wear off quickly, leaving the unattractive metal to show through.
At A+A, we use 18 karat gold for plating, and ensure a 2.5 micron thickness for a rich and durable finish. We prefer 18k gold for the outer plating because pure gold (aka 24K gold) is very malleable and has very strong yellow and orange tones, which give it a brassy look. After solid gold, gold vermeil is the highest quality of gold tone jewelry that you can buy. It is a great option for those who are seeking an affordable and high quality alternative to solid gold jewelry.

Rhodium plating is a process used in jewelry to coat pieces with a thin layer of rhodium. This plating enhances the appearance, durability, and resistance to tarnishing and gives jewelry a brilliant, mirror-like finish.
Rhodium is a rare, silvery-white metal from the platinum group of elements. It is highly reflective and resistant to corrosion and tarnishing and provides a protective coating that maintains its brilliance over time. Due to its hardness, rhodium is not malleable enough for jewelry making on its own, but it can significantly enhance the durability and shine of sterling silver as a plating.

While both gold vermeil and rhodium plating are considered resistant and durable with typical wear and use, environmental factors such as humidity, sweat, and chemicals can increase the likelihood of tarnishing. However, with proper care and maintenance, you can extend the longevity of your pieces and wear them for years to come.
Here are some important care recommendations:
- Avoid contact with harsh chemicals
- Regularly wipe gently with a soft dry cloth
- Avoid prolonged exposure to water
- Remove jewelry during activities that cause excessive sweating
- Place jewelry inside A+A microfiber pouches and store in a safe, dry place when not in use
