The Art of Making Jewellery
We craft our fine jewellery using gold vermeil, a superior finish featuring a thick layer of real gold bonded to a sterling silver core. This combination delivers the classic glow of gold with the trusted strength of silver, guaranteeing a warmth that shines and lasts. We use this durable base to beautifully showcase our hand-selected pearls. Our commitment to quality doesn't end there, every piece is perfected by hand, with smoothed edges and a final, thorough check of every clasp and setting before it leaves our workshop.
The Foundation of Shine
One Of Our Signature Practices Is Using Gold Vermeil.
Vermeil (pronounced ver-may) is a strictly regulated process, requiring a sterling silver base and a specific gold thickness. This traditional technique where a thick layer of real gold is expertly bonded over solid sterling silver for exceptional durability. Our gold vermeil pieces have at least 2.5 microns of 18k gold coating a 925 sterling silver base, making them up to 15 times thicker than standard gold-plated jewellery.
The result is jewellery that boasts a lasting golden luster without the high cost of solid gold, and without irritating your skin or losing its shine quickly. In fact, vermeil’s heavy gold layer means our pieces are made to be worn and cherished for years, with proper care. We choose this technique because it blends luxury and longevity – you get the look and feel of fine gold jewellrey with the added strength and resilience of sterling silver at the core.
What's more. Every pieces applied with care and finished by hand so the surface feels soft to the touch and gentle on skin.
Point 1
Beauty That Lasts & Durability
Enjoy the quality and prestige of a precious metal finish (real gold over real silver) at a more accessible price point than solid gold. The thicker gold layer resists everyday wear.
Point 2
Natural Nacre Of Our Pearls
Vermeil uses the same high-quality gold found in solid gold jewellery, delivering a rich color and luster that lasts significantly longer than traditional plating.
Point 3
Sensitive Skin Friendly
The sterling silver core with a high purity gold surface, provides a durable, hypoallergenic base that resists bending and tarnishing, allowing you to wear your pieces with confidence daily.
Beyond The Metal
The Final Touches: Pearls and Perfection
At the heart of many designs you will find our pearls. We work with Akoya and freshwater varieties chosen for their natural lustre, calm colour and balanced shape. Each pearl is matched by eye so pairs sit in quiet harmony, whether you prefer a delicate everyday size or a statement with presence.
Together, vermeil and pearls create a calm dialogue of light and texture. The gold sets a warm foundation, the pearl brings a living glow, and the craft holds them in perfect proportion. If you would like guidance on care or selection, our team is here to help.
Find Your Perfect Pearl
Natural Nacre Of Our Pearls
Each pearl develops its distinct iridescence and high luster through layers of pure crystalline nacre.
Our pearls are cultivated in freshwater mussels, a process that allows for a larger variety of organic shapes and colors compared to their saltwater counterparts. This natural origin ensures every pearl is 100% genuine nacre.
Because they form without a central bead, freshwater pearls are incredibly durable and highly prized for their exceptionally thick, dense luster.
Luster and Shape
Superior Value & Variety
Exceptional Luster, Unique Shapes, Pristine Surface
We grade our pearls based on surface quality and sharp reflectivity. Only those with the deepest, mirror-like shine make the cut.
We embrace the natural variations of freshwater pearls—from classic rounds to stunning baroque shapes—ensuring every piece is truly one-of-a-kind.
Each pearl is scrutinized for blemishes, ensuring a smooth, clean surface that beautifully catches the light when set in our Gold Vermeil.
We prioritize natural, creamy white and soft pink hues that complement the rich warmth of our Gold Vermeil, giving a cohesive, opulent look.
