18K Gold Vermeil

“18K gold is composed of 75% pure gold, providing a luxurious, rich color and excellent durability. It's commonly used in fine jewelry due to its ideal balance between purity and strength.”

Not to be confused with regular gold plating, the term '18K gold vermeil' refers to a thick, durable layer of 18K gold over high-quality sterling silver. We use 18K gold that is 2.5 microns thick, meeting the Federal Trade Commission's standards for vermeil. This gold is layered over 925 sterling silver, ensuring longevity and a premium look.

Many of our products feature the 'retro gold' or 'vintage gold' variant. This means they are crafted using 18K gold layered over 925 sterling silver, combining the beauty and elegance of gold with the affordability and strength of sterling silver. This technique not only enhances the jewelry's aesthetic appeal but also makes it accessible and durable for everyday wear. 

925 Sterling Silver

At LeGleam, we take pride in using 925 sterling silver, the industry standard in the United States and most world markets. Made of 92.5% pure silver, this material is known for its exceptional durability and timeless elegance. Sterling silver's resilience makes it ideal for daily, long-term wear, ensuring that your jewelry maintains its beauty and luster for years to come. All of our sterling silver and 18k gold vermeil pieces are stamped with “925” due to their sterling silver core.

Drip Glazing

Instead of being a material, drip glazing is a unique technique in our jewelry, applying liquid glaze to metal surfaces for striking, unpredictable patterns. Using premium, non-toxic glazes fired at high temperatures, our method creates a vibrant, durable finish. Combining classic craftsmanship with modern design, drip glazing ensures each of our jewelry piece is truly one-of-a-kind.
