Scaredy Cat Charm

Brave Daughters was founded in 2018 by Erin Myles with a simple desire to do jewelry differently. After 20+ years in fast fashion and costume jewelry—and the corporate burnout that came with it—Erin made the brave choice to walk away and build something rooted in meaning and sustainability. What started as a small pop-up has since grown into the first Forever Jewelry studio in New England, with brick-and-mortar locations in Boston’s Seaport and Dedham at Legacy Place.

Our 14k gold vermeil pieces are crafted with a thick layer of solid 14k gold over sterling silver. With proper care, they are designed to be worn and loved for years to come.

To preserve the beauty and longevity of your vermeil jewelry:

Avoid moisture and chemicals. Remove before showering, swimming, exercising, or applying lotions, perfumes, hairspray, or hand sanitizer.

Store thoughtfully. Keep pieces in a soft pouch or jewelry box when not in use to prevent scratching and tarnish.

Wear with care. Vermeil is more durable than standard gold plating, but it can still wear over time with friction or frequent contact.

Clean gently. Use a soft, dry, non-abrasive cloth to polish. Avoid liquid cleaners or harsh chemicals.

Put jewelry on last. This helps minimize exposure to products that may dull the finish.

With mindful wear and care, your 14k gold vermeil jewelry will maintain its warm glow and refined finish.

We source locally as much as possible and partner with a small group of trusted manufacturers we’ve worked with for years. Every piece is rooted in 20+ years of jewelry design and production experience, made with high standards and long-term relationships.
