At Opal & Vine, we focus on high-quality, long-lasting materials. Our pieces are crafted using 18k and 24k gold-filled, vermeil, sterling silver, and carefully selected natural stones.
Each material is chosen for its durability, beauty, and ability to be worn comfortably every day.

Great question—and an important one.
Gold-filled jewelry contains a thick layer of real gold that is bonded to a base metal, making it highly durable and ideal for everyday wear.
Vermeil is a layer of gold over sterling silver, offering a more refined, fine-jewelry feel with a slightly more delicate nature.
Both are high-quality alternatives to traditional gold plating and are designed to last with proper care.
-
We prioritize working with suppliers who value responsible and ethical sourcing practices. Our natural stones are carefully selected with an emphasis on mindful harvesting and respect for the environments they come from.
Because each stone is formed by nature, slight variations are expected—and part of what makes every piece unique.
-
Gold-filled and vermeil jewelry are designed to last significantly longer than standard plated pieces. With proper care, your jewelry can maintain its shine and beauty over time

To keep your pieces looking their best:
