Hi Paul,

    I use Sterling Silver as a base and sent it to Dan Kane Plating, a
    local new york vendor, who was recommended by two jewelers. I simply
    asked for Vermeil and trust that they actually do it so I have no
    idea how thick it is. They do not have any official paperwork. 

    So true vermeil should not rub off this quickly even if a ring is
    worn frequently? I am aware it's best not to use vermeil for rings
    but I wanted to keep the price low for my target customers. 

thanks!
eugenie
