Fine ring vermeil - Josef Hoffmann
Wire diameter: 1,2mm Sizes ajustable : S=48/52 / M=52/56
Vermeil - Gold
Weight: 0,8 g
The Hoffmann ring is shaped from sterling silver wire. A balanced gesture is the secret of expertise.
This technique also maintains the metal’s suppleness. Heated to a certain degree, the silver softens then hardens again under the hammer blows.
It is all about adjusting the gesture, giving the jewel its shape, its imprint and its bearing, whilst maintaining its malleability so as to obtain adjustable pieces which fit the body.
Then is applied a minimum 5 microns thick 750‰ gold layer, using a technique called galvanoplasty (or electrolysis).
Vermeil is non-allergenic by nature.
