Sad there aren’t more vermeil jewelry pieces
I know with the price of gold, solid gold pieces probably don’t sell well, but vermeil should still be a good option. I turn gold tone jewelry black when I wear it and don’t like silver. Also, the price of a lot of base metal jewelry is now priced like it is precious metal.
I have been waiting for a vermeil shield ring from Xavier or Jean Dousset and it looks like I’ll be waiting longer.
Xavier has frosted crystals in some filigree setting that would really pop in a vermeil setting.
Has anyone had success with gold plating kits?
Anyone else a yellow gold girl?

I’m a white metal girl, so I like the silver trends. But I also like to see variety for all of us. More vermeil pieces would definitely be a good thing!

I like vermeil pieces. I like silver just as much though. I like it all! I recently acquired sensitivity to gold tone base metal 🙁
But – Believe it or not, what works best for my skin tone is actually dark oxidized silver, or slightly darkened bronze, the color of Heidi Daus metals.

Thanks LLAMA! I’m glad I’m not alone. I hope they hear us.

I too am a total yellow gold girl, and have beautiful 14k gold jewelry. I have a few silver pieces….Nicky Butler has beautiful silver jewelry. Gold prices are high obviously. They’ve come down a little to about $1300. Silver is only $22 oz. I get a little annoyed when other metals are being sold and they make gold comments and infer ALL metal prices are sky high. I too would jump all over a Xavier or Jean Dousset piece in a quality vermeil.
