At Les Voyages, we pride ourselves on offering high-quality jewellery crafted from the finest materials, including 18k gold vermeil, S925 sterling silver, and natural pearls. Our commitment to quality means that our prices are slightly higher than other stores, but rest assured, they remain affordable. In this blog, we’ll explore why our jewellery is worth every penny and the incredible benefits of choosing our gold vermeil pieces.
Understanding the Quality
When it comes to jewellery, the quality of materials used plays a crucial role in determining both the appearance and longevity of the pieces. At Les Voyages, we use only the best materials: 18k gold vermeil, S925 sterling silver, and natural pearls. Unlike common alternatives like gold-plated jewellery or lower-quality silver, our materials ensure that our jewellery not only looks stunning but also stands the test of time.
What is Gold Vermeil?
Gold vermeil is a premium form of gold-plated jewellery that involves a thick layer of gold over sterling silver. This process results in pieces that have the luxurious look and feel of solid gold without the hefty price tag. Gold vermeil should not be confused with regular gold plating, which typically involves a much thinner layer of gold that wears off quickly. Unlike most brands that use brass or copper underneath the gold vermeil, at Les Voyages, we use S925 sterling silver as the base for most of our products, ensuring superior quality and durability.
Advantages of Gold Vermeil Jewellery
Gold vermeil offers numerous advantages, making it a preferred choice for discerning jewellery lovers:
- Durability and Resistance to Tarnishing: The thick gold layer over sterling silver makes gold vermeil more durable and less prone to tarnishing compared to regular gold-plated jewellery.
- Hypoallergenic Properties: Gold vermeil is hypoallergenic, making it a safe choice for those with sensitive skin.
- Affordability: Gold vermeil provides the luxurious appearance of solid gold jewellery at a fraction of the cost.
- Rich Appearance and Feel: The substantial gold layer gives gold vermeil jewellery a rich, opulent look that is almost indistinguishable from solid gold.

S925 sterling silver, composed of 92.5% pure silver, is renowned for its durability and beauty:
- Durability and Tarnish Resistance: Sterling silver is known for its strength and resistance to tarnishing, ensuring your jewellery maintains its shine over time.

- Versatility and Timeless Appeal: Sterling silver's classic look complements any outfit and occasion, making it a timeless addition to any jewellery collection.

The Value of Natural Pearls
Natural pearls add an element of elegance and uniqueness to our jewellery:
- Difference Between Natural and Cultured Pearls: Natural pearls are formed organically, making each one unique. This rarity and beauty set them apart from cultured pearls.
- Elegance and Sophistication: The lustrous glow of natural pearls adds a touch of sophistication to any piece of jewellery, making it perfect for special occasions or everyday wear.
