White gold is a popular and versatile metal that has gained significant popularity in the jewellery industry. It possesses a stunning appearance akin to platinum or silver but with the added durability and lustre of gold. White gold is an alloy that combines pure gold with other white metals, typically palladium, or silver. The addition of these metals alters the colour of the gold from its natural yellow hue to a silvery-white shade. Also, they not only enhance the metal's durability and strength but also provide a beautiful backdrop for diamonds and gemstones, making it a favoured choice for engagement rings and and other fine jewellery pieces. The proportion of pure gold in the white gold is measured in caratage, similar to yellow gold. The higher the carat weight the more pure gold it contains.
Creating exquisite white gold jewellery is a meticulous process that requires skill and expertise. Master craftsmen carefully blend pure gold with alloy metals to achieve the desired hue and strength, resulting in pieces that are not only visually stunning but also built to withstand the test of time. Its unparalleled beauty, versatility, and durability make it a coveted choice for those who appreciate the finer things in life. White gold's timeless appeal lies in its ability to exude sophistication while offering a modern twist to traditional gold jewellery. Craft your white gold engagement ring with expert advice and custom designs at Hatton Garden Jewellers, Regal.
How is white gold different from platinum?
While both white gold and platinum have a similar appearance, they are different metals. Platinum is a naturally white metal and is more dense and durable than white gold. White gold, on the other hand, is an alloy made from pure gold mixed with white metals such as palladium or silver. It is often plated with rhodium to enhance its whiteness and provide a durable finish.
Does white gold turn yellow over time?
Yes, white gold can develop a yellowish tint over time as the rhodium plating wears off. This is a natural process and can be remedied by having the ring re-plated with rhodium periodically.
How often should I replate my white gold engagement ring?
The frequency of re-plating depends on how often the ring is worn and how it is cared for. Typically, re-plating is recommended every 1-3 years to maintain its bright white appearance.
How should I care for my white gold engagement ring?
To care for your white gold ring, avoid exposing it to harsh chemicals, such as chlorine, and household cleaners. Clean it regularly with mild soap and water, and store it in a soft, separate compartment to prevent scratches.
Why choose a white gold engagement ring?
White gold engagement rings are popular for their modern and elegant look. They complement diamonds and other gemstones well, providing a versatile and timeless choice for an engagement ring.
Can white gold be combined with other metals in an engagement ring?
Yes, white gold can be combined with other metals, such as yellow gold or rose gold, to create unique and fashionable two-tone designs.
What karat weight is best for white gold engagement rings?
The most common karat weights for white gold engagement rings are 14K and 18K. 14K white gold is more durable due to its higher alloy content, while 18K white gold has a richer, more luxurious feel with a higher gold content.
