Two tone cuff gold & silver - Levant
Height: 2,5 cm Adjustable size: 16 cm
Vermeil - Gold & Sterling silver
Weight: 25 g
The Levant cuff is made from sterling silver plates cut, hammered, shaped. Then is applied a 5 microns layer of gold, using a technique called galvanoplasty (or electrolysis).
As early as the Greek and the Roman Antiquity, objects and jewellery in plated silver can be found, preceding the creation of vermeil. Homer’s The Odyssey mentions techniques of folding and hammering.
With time, silver and gold tend to merge, silver’s paler glints blending with the warmer shine of gold.
