White Gold Necklace

Does gold also have the white color? The simple answer is NO. Gold is still the well-known yellow color. White gold in itself is made white by the efforts of man to refine jewelery that results from the market requirements. White gold is an alloy of the actual yellow gold by being galvanized with a white metal such as silver, platinum or rhodium. In a white gold coating, the rhodium substance, which is itself a liquid form of platinum, is used to achieve the design.

Dimensions of the white gold chain

The amount of gold in a substance, ie the gold purity in a necklace, is measured in carats. Pure gold is actually a 24 carat gold, but that does not exist in jewelry because it has to be hardened with other metals. Hardening is done by electroplating with other metals, reducing the carat content to what is really achievable today. You can actually find either 10, 14 or 18 karat gold jewelry on the market.

So you're talking about a 1 o carat white gold necklace, 14 karat white gold chains or 14 karat white gold chains in the range of gold available.

Styles for white gold necklaces

When buying a necklace of any kind, the use must be required. That is, how often? It will be for an occasion, everyday use or just casual. This will also help you decide whether you prefer styles such as pendants, necklace patterns or jewelery with other gemstones. All this forms the different styles. The length of the necklace is also a style in itself and you may want to pay attention to the length style you prefer.

Care of your white gold necklace

It should be noted that a white gold necklace requires constant care, as the coating often wears off. To maintain the shine, it is recommended to repeat the white every six months if you want to continue to enjoy the value of your white gold necklace.
