Colours of GOLD
Explore the various hues of gold including yellow, white, and rose each offering distinct characteristics and appeal.
YELLOW GOLD
The majority of people envision Yellow Gold when they think of gold jewellery. It has the longest history because it is the nearest in colour to pure gold. Silver and copper are alloyed with Yellow Gold. The alloy has a more intense yellow hue when the proportion of pure gold is greater.
WHITE GOLD
Alloying White Gold with platinum, palladium,or nickel is common. Rhodium is occasionally applied to White Gold to improve its radiance and durability.
ROSE GOLD
Rose Gold is alloyed with copper and silver, much like Yellow Gold, but the proportion of copper to silver varies and some varieties have no silver at all. The colour of Rose Gold has changed over time, going from coppery tones to a more striking pink tint.
