What are the different types of gold used in jewelry?
Gold jewelry comes in various types, each with unique characteristics:
Yellow Gold: Traditional and timeless, yellow gold is made by mixing pure gold with alloys like copper and zinc. It has a warm, classic look and is available in various karats (e.g., 14K, 18K).
White Gold: Created by alloying gold with metals like palladium or nickel and often plated with rhodium, white gold has a silvery appearance. It is durable and complements cool skin tones.
Rose Gold: Achieved by adding copper to gold, rose gold has a distinctive pink hue. Its romantic and vintage appeal makes it popular for engagement rings and fashion pieces.
Green Gold: Also known as electrum, green gold is a mix of gold and silver, giving it a pale greenish-yellow color. It is less common but offers a unique look.
Gold Vermeil: This is sterling silver coated with a thick layer of gold, usually 10K or higher. It combines the affordability of silver with the luxury of gold.
Each type of gold offers different aesthetics and properties, allowing you to choose based on personal preference and style.
