Periwinkle Ring - Gold Vermeil

The Periwinkle ring utilises the individual pattern, texture and spiral shape impressed from the hollow inside of a periwinkle shell. The delicate band is juxtaposed by the heavy face which acts as a canvas for the gestural, hypnotic swirl sketched by the periwinkle and received by the wearer. Made in solid recycled sliver with the option of Gold Vermeil. 

Pair with the Periwinkle Necklace. 

Size: L

Made from fairmined gold vermeil.

Vermeil has been used since the 19th Century and is when a thin layer of gold is applied to a solid sterling silver piece. It makes the jewellery look the same colour as gold but without it being solid therefore a cheaper option for gold looking jewellery without compromising on quality.

All the Gold Vermeil pieces have a thick layer of 18ct yellow gold (on average 3 microns) applied over the top of the silver making it the most durable gold plating option possible- about five times thicker than conventional gold plating.

Normal ‘Gold Plating’ is a very thin layer of gold and can be applied over the top of any base metal which usually isn’t silver and could be hiding a cheap metal such as brass or bronze. Because the jewellery is made to last and of the highest quality, no base metals are used and Hannah only works with solid silver, gold and platinum.
