About
Vermeil — silver gilded gold.
Soft yet enduring.
Vermeil is my personal page — a home for products, projects, and ideas built slowly and carefully. Not a company, not a corporation — just one person building things they believe in.
I believe in quiet luxury — refinement without ostentation — and soft strength — power that comes from patience, not aggression.
Origin of the name
Vermeil · 白蠟金
Vermeil in French means “gilded silver” — sterling silver coated in pure gold. Softer than solid gold, yet more enduring thanks to its silver core. Beauty from balance.
My birth year maps to the Nạp Âm archetype Bạch Lạp Kim (白蠟金)— “white wax gold.” One of six types of Metal in the 60-year cycle: young, unforged, soft as wax. My work philosophy starts here: build slowly, build well, let time do the tempering.
