I’ve always wanted to make a pair of understated yin yang hoops, and here we are! These sculptural hoops are simple enough to be worn with bright prints, yet look like statement pieces when worn with solid colours. They are lightweight, entirely hand-carved, and took a few tries to perfect. Please feel free to wear them everywhere and with everything.
Gold vermeil is an overlay of gold over a base of sterling silver. The gold colour will age gracefully as the piece lightens to a 10K gold or warm silver colour. The rate of aging depends on care, climate and individual body chemistry, and may vary greatly on a case by case basis. As rings are worn on the hand, and are exposed to more frequent rubbing, they will often age more quickly than necklaces or earrings.
To extend the gold colour of your vermeil pieces, remove when washing hands, showering, applying lotions or perfumes, using cleansers, or working out. Store your jewelry in a dry place, preferably in individual air-tight bags. Do not use chemical jewelry cleansers or polishing cloths on gold vermeil jewelry.
