Product Details & Materials
What materials are used in Isla Silver jewellery?
- We use sterling silver,
ethically sourced gemstones, and for certain pieces, gold vermeil or gold‑fill
/ 18K / 14K gold plating, depending on the design. Some pieces also
include freshwater pearls, brass, or other mixed metals.
What is gold vermeil, and how is it different from gold plated?
“Gold vermeil” refers
to a thick layer of real gold (often 18 karat) over a base of sterling silver,
with stricter standards around the thickness of the gold layer than standard
gold‑plating. It tends to be more durable and higher quality than thin gold‑plated
metals. Browse our Gold Vermeil collection.
Is Isla Silver jewellery made using real silver?
- Yes. Many of our pieces are
made from sterling silver.
What does 925 sterling silver mean?
- Sterling silver marked
“925” means that the metal is 92.5% pure silver, with the rest being
alloy metals to give strength, durability, and finish.
What carat gold is used in Isla Silver jewellery?
- Gold content varies
depending on the piece: some pieces are described as 18KT gold vermeil, others
use 14KT gold fill or 18KT plating.
Are Isla Silver pieces hypoallergenic?
- While we always strive to use high-quality metals and responsibly sourced materials, if you have a known metal sensitivity (especially to alloy metals) it’s best to check the product details for each item or contact us directly for advice.
What does “mixed metals” mean?
“Mixed metals” refers to jewellery that combines two or more different metal types or finishes in a single piece — such as sterling silver paired with gold vermeil, or silver with brass accents. This creates contrast, texture, and a unique artisan look that’s versatile and easy to style with other jewellery. Browse our Mixed Metal Jewellery.
