Thanks for asking; It is Stamped Sterling Silver 925, but covered in yellow gold/Vermeil, which was sold by Technibond in HSN, where I bought it. Some washed-out famous person puts their name on it to try to get big bucks. I got it on sale and it actually could pass for real on the right person. I am a mom, not very dressy, so it doesn't work for me, ha ha!! I think we all have those compulsive buys, me way too many! I was in a hospital bed for 13 months and managed to spend $40,0000 dollars! I am not kidding either!
