About Gold
18K Gold Wedding Rings - (75% gold and 25% alloy) 18K gold is the softest and most pure gold of these three karat golds. It is the most expensive choice due to the high content of gold. 18K gold is a popular choice in diamond wedding rings. It produces a luxurious deep yellow color and is the most resistant to tarnishing. Because 18K is the softest band, it will show wear sooner than the 14K and 10K bands, which are harder. However, they are still the favored choice.
14K Gold Wedding Rings - (58.3% gold and 41.7% alloy) 14K gold is the preffered choice of most of our customers. We consider it to be the happy medium of these three karats. It has the stregnth that is needed in a wedding band, yet it is still resistant to tarnishing. The majority of all wedding rings are made with 14K gold, and is by far the preffered choice of jewelers. Because we know that everyone has a personal preference, we like to give you the choice!
10K Gold Wedding Rings - (41.7% gold and 58.3% alloy) For those who would like to purchase a gold wedding ring, but find the 14K and 18K to be too expensive for their budget, the 10K is a great choice. 10K gold rings are the most affordable of the three karats. It is the hardest of the three bands, although there is much debate as to whether 10K or 14K gold wears longer. 10K gold is a paler yellow than the 18K gold for example. This is often another considering factor for buyers that do not like the rich luxurious yellow that you will find in an 18K gold. 10K gold is more subtle.
