Cristy's Comments
When I was a little girl, my parents had a small house in Metairie, just outside New Orleans, with a decent sized yard. At the very back of the yard and centered, was a huge group of Banana trees all grouped together. Fortunately for me, I was small enough to fit behind this massive group of trees and create a secret play area for myself. Throughout my childhood, without my parents knowing, I would bring back tools and supplies I needed to make this area more comfortable - towels, blankets, books, lighting, etc. The thick layers of leaves gave me plenty of shade. So much so, that even in hot New Orleans summers, it was cool enough back there for me to hang out comfortably.
Banana Leaves, to me, are a reminder of this part of my childhood - where I created a safe haven in nature. It has a very positive meaning to me in my life and I hope my line of Banana Leaf jewelry will also bring you joy and happiness. Nature is loving and caring, and I feel we all need a little reminder in our busy lives to keep nature close to us.
Our gold vermeil designs offer an affordable alternative to solid gold jewelry —crafted from sterling silver and generously coated in a luxurious 3-micron thick layer of 18kt yellow gold.
While the vermeil offers robust durability, it's essential to note that prolonged exposure to water and chemicals can impact its longevity, urging a cautious approach.
It's also important to note that gold vermeil does not last forever. High consistency wear will cause the gold to fade and eventually lose it's brilliant luster.
We love to hear if you've worn through the thick layers of vermeil. While we do not offer replating services, many jewelers do. If you find your vermeil jewelry beginning to dull, seek out your local jeweler to replate your jewelry.
To preserve the splendor of your adorned pieces, kindly refrain from wearing them during activities that involve water, exposure to chemicals, or the application of beauty products such as perfumes, creams, lotions, and makeup.
For gentle cleaning, employ a soft, damp cloth, ensuring thorough drying before wearing. Avoid the use of harsh chemicals, jewelry cleaners, or polishing cloths, as these may compromise the integrity of the gold plating.
