18ct Yellow Gold Vermeil Moonstone Pendant - Celestial Elegance Captured
Discover the ethereal beauty of our 18ct Yellow Gold Vermeil Moonstone Pendant, where the mystical allure of moonstone meets the warm radiance of gold vermeil in perfect harmony.
This enchanting piece showcases a captivating faceted moonstone gemstone (measuring approximately 9mm), celebrated for its luminous adularescence—that magical inner glow that seems to dance beneath the surface like captured moonlight. Each moonstone is freeform cut, ensuring your pendant possesses unique characteristics that make it distinctly yours.
 
Understanding Gold Vermeil
What is Gold Vermeil? Gold vermeil (pronounced "ver-may") is a premium jewellery finish that combines the beauty of gold with the durability and affordability of sterling silver. Our 18ct yellow gold vermeil features a substantial layer of 18-carat gold electroplated over sterling silver base, creating a piece that offers the rich, warm appearance of solid gold jewelry at a more accessible price point.
Unlike gold plating, vermeil requires a thicker gold layer and must be applied over sterling silver (not base metals), ensuring superior quality, longevity, and tarnish resistance. With proper care, gold vermeil maintains its beautiful golden luster for years, making it an excellent choice for both everyday wear and special occasions.
 
The Rebecca Oldfield Difference
The moonstone's natural beauty is elevated by Rebecca's signature sparkle effect texture, creating layers of brilliance that interact beautifully with the stone's inherent luminosity. This masterful combination of traditional metalsmithing technique and gemstone artistry results in a pendant that catches and reflects light from every angle.
Set in lustrous 18ct yellow gold vermeil over sterling silver, the warm golden tones create a perfect complement to moonstone's cool, silvery glow—a harmonious balance that enhances both elements while creating visual depth and richness.
 
Effortless Elegance
Suspended from a delicate 18" gold vermeil sterling silver chain, this pendant is designed for versatility. Whether worn as an everyday statement piece or saved for special occasions, its timeless elegance adapts beautifully to any setting. The carefully chosen chain length ensures the pendant sits perfectly, creating an elegant focal point.
 
The Magic of Moonstone
Moonstone has captivated jewelry lovers for centuries, prized not only for its beauty but also for its symbolic connection to intuition, new beginnings, and inner strength. The freeform cutting technique celebrates each stone's individual character, ensuring no two pendants are identical—much like the phases of the moon that inspired this gemstone's name.
