Now that gold is over $1500 an ounce VERMEIL is an affordable consideration. VERMEIL looks like 14K yellow gold however; it is a fraction of the price. In order to qualify as gold vermeil a piece of jewelry must have a base of sterling silver. The gold layer with which the silver is plated must be at least 10K gold and the layer must be at least 2 ½ microns of thickness. Consider vermeil as an alternative while the $$ of gold is prohibitive!
