Gold Colors – Explained

|26/07, 2023

At MNOP Jewelry, we offer an exquisite selection of jewelry in three distinct gold colors: Yellow, White, and Rose. But what exactly do these gold colors entail?

We proudly use 18K gold, which signifies that 75% of the metal is pure gold, while the remaining 25% comprises other supporting metals. Pure gold, at 100%, is too soft to be used in jewelry, so the addition of other metals, known as an alloy, is what imparts the various colors to gold.

18K Yellow Gold

Yellow gold is designed to closely resemble the appearance of 100% pure gold. The alloy consists of gold, silver, and copper. This particular gold color is the most common choice in Europe and around the world.

18K White Gold

Our white gold boasts a unique and beautiful hue, slightly darker than the conventional White Gold. It has a resemblance to stainless steel or titanium. Unlike many jewelers, we do not plate our white gold with rhodium to achieve a silver-like appearance. Instead, we embrace the purity of white gold, maintaining its genuine color. Our White Gold is exceptionally luxurious, containing 16% palladium, which contributes to its captivating hue and enhances its durability.

18K Rose Gold

Our Rose Gold exhibits a delightful variation from the standard hue you might be accustomed to. We use a traditional Swedish color that possesses a more subtle tone. This makes it the perfect choice if you find traditional rose gold a bit too red for your taste. Rose gold contains a slightly higher copper content than yellow gold, infusing it with a charming red undertone.

In conclusion, our collection of gold colors – Yellow, White, and Rose – is crafted with meticulous attention to detail, blending the perfect alloys to create these mesmerizing shades. Each gold color brings its unique charm and allure, ensuring that there is a perfect choice for every jewelry enthusiast. At MNOP Jewelry, we take pride in offering you not only the finest craftsmanship but also a stunning array of gold colors to suit your individual style and preferences.
