Our diamonds are lab grown and our stones are ethically sourced. Lab grown diamonds are a more sustainable and responsible alternative to natural diamonds, hence why we use them. Lab grown diamonds are created from real diamond cultures through HPHT (high-pressure high-temperature) or CVD (chemical vapor deposition). We use high clarity diamonds in our pieces. Lab grown diamonds and mined diamonds look the same to the naked eye.

Vermeil is a high quality sterling silver that is plated with a layer of gold (we use 2.5 microns). Most vermeil jewelry is created by electroplating the sterling silver with gold, a chemical process that uses an electrical current to bind the two metals. Gold vermeil is more durable than other gold plating options and requires a sterling silver base so is more valuable.

Silver is known to naturally oxidize over time. When jewelry is plated with a layer of rhodium, silver polish is generally not needed. Rhodium also protects from scratches and wear, and helps maintain luster and shine.

• To maintain the brilliance of your gold vermeil and rhodium plated jewelry, softly wipe using a gentle cloth or cotton ball moistened with lukewarm water (limit the use of mild soap). Ensure thorough pat drying afterwards. 
• When storing or traveling pack jewelry separately from other pieces. 
• Avoid exposing jewelry to chlorine water, perfumes, or lotions.
• Natural oxidation and tarnishing may occur.
