Tiffin Box Charm - Gold Vermeil

At CULTURECLUB, every charm begins with a story.

When we set out to design our Tiffin Charm, we knew there was one person we had to meet: Lily Baria, better known as the Tiffin Lady. So we traveled to Goa to sit down with the woman who has inspired millions to see the humble tiffin not simply as a lunchbox, but as a vessel of love, ritual, and home.

Because a tiffin has never been just about what’s inside. It’s the anticipation of lifting each layer, the comfort of a meal packed with care, and the quiet traditions that connect generations across cultures.

CULTURECLUB was never meant to be just a collection of charms. It’s a platform for preserving the stories behind the objects we carry through life - the everyday icons that hold extraordinary meaning.

This conversation with Lily is a celebration of one of those objects, and the memories, identities, and acts of care it continues to carry.

Gold vermeil is a thick layer of gold over a sterling silver base. The result is a higher-quality, longer-lasting option than standard gold plating at a more accessible price point than solid gold.

Charm dimensions: L (11mm), W (7.9mm), H (13.5mm).

GOLD VERMEIL
Gold vermeil is a thick layer of gold over sterling silver. It is higher-quality option that is more durable than standard gold plating. Proper care will ensure your gold vermeil is long-lasting.

HOW TO CARE
Keep away from water, lotions, perfumes, and cleaning products.

Remove when showering, exercising, or swimming to prevent exposure to moisture and chemicals.

Store seperately in a safe, dry place to protect the surface.

HOW TO CLEAN
Clean your gold vermeil with a soft, dry cloth after wearing. If using a polishing cloth, use light pressure and avoid over-polishing.
