Precious Metal

Real Or Solid Gold – Yellow Gold - 9,14,18, 22 or 24 Carat Gold

Gold, known by its various names, is the most dominated precious metal in the world. In its original colour it’s a bright, slightly reddish yellow, dense, soft, malleable, and ductile metal.

Gold’s finesse is measured in carats (ct), in its purest form Gold is referred to as 24ct or 99.99%  pure gold.

Gold has various uses including investment and jewellery. It is combined with other harder alloy metals to make it more durable for jewellery and get different colour tones.

 

White Gold - 9ct, 14ct OR 18 Carat

White gold is an alloy of gold and at least one white metal (usually manganese, palladium or nickel). These alloys when mixed in a predefined proportion give Gold a lighter colour. The bright and sparkly finish for White Gold Jewellery comes from a bright silver coloured metal called Rhodium.
