Sterling silver and 22 karat yellow gold vermeil “whale tail” necklace by Michou.
The yellow is vermeil (pronounced ver-may) or washed in gold. Vermeil is material that is composed of a thick layer of gold over solid sterling silver. While industry standards dictate that the gold portion must be 10 karats or above and 2 microns thick for a piece to be considered vermeil in the U.S.,Michou uses 22 karat gold that is 3 or more microns thick.
Playful images of seahorse, starfish, and sand dollar are carved in perfect detail amid stones of blue labradorite, blue topaz, and white pearl. They dance on fanciful pendants and bracelets, captured in draping strands necklaces and ornate cuffs, or hung in singular pieces as simple drop earrings and curious charms.
