18 Karat
The higher the gold content (or karat) the more pure the gold is. 18 Karat is the highest karat of gold typically used for jewelry (rings, watches, bracelets). 18 Karat is 75% pure gold and 25% alloy.
Solid Gold
Solid gold is exactly what it means - it's gold inside and out. Solid gold has no base metal, and is durable while also maintaining, if not increasing, its value over time. Solid gold does not tarnish or change color.
Gold Plated Vermeil
Unlike regular gold-plating, Vermeil is a thicker, longer lasting version of gold-plating. Its thick layering of gold over sterling silver allows it to last longer, and is tarnish free and hypoallergenic.
