About Gold Filled:
Gold filled is when a layer of gold is pressure bonded to another metal. Gold filled is not to be confused with gold plating as filled literally has 100% more gold than gold plating. Gold filled is much more valuable and tarnish resistant. It does not flake off, rub off or turn colors. As a matter of fact, anyone who can wear gold can wear gold filled without worries of any allergic reaction to the jewelry. Gold filled jewelry is an economical alternative to solid gold!
About Vermeil:
Vermeil ( for those who don't know already ) is a term used to describe when a gold layer is fused to sterling silver. The gold is then many times thicker than plating would be. This is a gold choice for anyone with metal allergies.
This can be cleaned like any sterling silver by dipping into silver cleaner.
