As a vintage and original jewelry store, we see beauty in rediscovery.

Just like finding a forgotten piece of jewelry waiting to be loved, we couldn’t resist giving Riante—a rare but beautiful word—a second chance at life.

Riante means to smile, to laugh, to embrace joy—good things that resonate with us. But it’s the rarity of the word that makes it the perfect fit for a brand like ours: one that serves unique people, those who follow their own aesthetic and reject fleeting trends.

And that’s exactly what Club Riante represents: a space for those who value individuality and timeless style, where fashion is more than just what you wear—it’s a personal statement, a celebration of originality.

Here’s a look at the difference between Club Riante Original and Vintage by Club Riante:

Club Riante Original features our unique designs, created by our talented team and crafted by REACH and RJC certified manufacturers.

Vintage by Club Riante showcases our handpicked selection of genuine vintage pieces, chosen for their timeless style, lasting quality, and bold designs.

We make our jewelry from metals that are both durable and gentle on sensitive skin:

1. For Gold Vermeil pieces we apply a 2.5 microns thick coating of 18k gold on 92.5 Sterling Silver

2. For Sterling Silver pieces we add a protective layer of Rhodium on 92.5 Sterling Silver to avoid surface tarnish

The choice of metals helps us create jewelry that is safe for sensitive skin and can last a long time with a little bit of care.

Moreover, our manufacturing partners help us make more sustainable choices by adhering to REACH and RJC standards and using environmentally friendly materials like recycled silver in our products.

To qualify as Gold Vermeil in Canada, jewelry must meet these key requirements:

- Thickness of Plating: The gold layer must be at least 1 micron thick.

- Purity of Gold: The gold plating should be 10-karat or higher.

- Base Metal: The base metal must be 92.5 sterling silver.

At Club Riante, we use 2.5 microns of 18-karat gold over 92.5 sterling silver. This combination gives you the luxurious finish of solid gold while keeping our jewelry affordable.

Sterling silver is composed of 92.5% pure silver and 7.5% other metals, like copper, to enhance its durability. Tarnishing occurs when these metals react with sulfur-containing compounds from everyday sources like rubber gloves, eggs, seawater, and chlorine.

To help resist tarnishing, we apply a rhodium layer to our sterling silver jewelry, keeping it bright for longer. While this layer can wear off with frequent use, maintaining your sterling silver is easy!

In fact, the more you wear your silver jewelry, the shinier it tends to stay. Your body oils help prevent buildup, keeping it looking great. If you do notice tarnishing, it could be due to your individual body chemistry. But don’t worry—there are countless YouTube videos showing how to clean silver using common household items.

Interestingly, silver tarnishes more when stored away. To minimize tarnish, wipe your jewelry before storing it and keep it in an airtight container with an anti-tarnish strip.

Our Gold Vermeil jewelry features a 2.5-micron thick layer of 18-karat gold plating over sterling silver. With proper care, you can extend the life of this gold plating. However, abrasive materials, frequent wear, and exposure to household chemicals can gradually wear it down.

If the gold plating eventually wears off, you'll still have a beautiful sterling silver piece. You can either have it replated to restore its original gold finish or enjoy it as a classic sterling silver item.
