Vermeil Jewelry

Vermeil is gold plated jewelry over sterling silver to ensure a long lasting hold over the gold and an attractive look even after the gold begins to wear. Simple gold plated jewelry on the other hand uses base metals underneath the gold that accelerate the rate the gold wears down. The vermeil jewelry found here at Pennyweights uses no less than 18 carat and usually 22 carat gold plating. Our vermeil is also nearly twice the required thickness needed to be considered Vermeil (4-5 micrometers vs the minimum of 2.5). This means that our vermeil jewelry will wear better and last longer than compared to other jewelry stores.

Moonstone

Moonstone has been used in jewelry by various civilizations for hundreds of years including by the Romans who believed moonstone was born from the solidified rays of the moon. Both the Romans and Greeks associated the gemstone with their respective gods. Moonstone itself is characterized by it's whitish bluish sheen from light reflected on the different layers inside the stone. Moonstone is a June birthstone.
