Christine Alexander Fine Jewellery
Gorgeous, detailed fine raindrop chain, with a fine coating of rose gold. Beautiful and affordable, it has an antique appearance. Available in 16" up to 32" length. Strong enough to handle a lightweight pendant. If the length you require is out of stock please contact me: enquiries@christinealexander.co.uk.
Vermeil is the name given to Gold-plated Silver. This item cannot be referred to as Vermeil as the plating is thinner on these chains to keep the cost down. Depending on how the jewellery is cared for and what chemicals and elements it comes in contact with, this chain should retain its golden look for several years. However, over time, as with all plating, eventually the coating will begin to wear and the Silver underneath will be seen. Although you will be left with what is still a precious metal item, if you wish to preserve the plating, avoid household detergents, particularly chlorine which can be present in tap water; remove your jewellery before swimming, bathing or showering. It is a simple matter to have items re-plated.
Always take your jewellery off whenever you are doing activities that might cause damage. Remember that household cleaners and chlorine in swimming pools can damage many gems.
Jewellery is best stored individually in a soft pouch or a box with compartments away from sunlight and where harder gemstones can’t scratch softer ones.
