Rose Gold
Metal Make Up
Pure gold contains 24 karats of gold which is too soft to withstand every day wear so for wedding bands we combine pure gold with silver and copper for strength.
Color
Rose gold gets its signature color from a large proportion of copper which makes for a beautiful pink hue.
Durability
If you keep your rose gold wedding band away from harsh chemicals youÕll find that it will keep its color and luster for a lifetime because gold is naturally impervious to heat, moisture and oxygen.
Abrasions and scratches are bound to happen over the years and these can quickly and easily be buffed out by your local jewelry professional.
14K vs. 18K
Both 14K and 18K gold are top quality alloys. 18K gold has a higher gold content than 14K - approximately 15% more - and therefore is considered a bit more luxurious. 18K gold is slightly softer than 14K so it's not recommended if you are active and will be hard on your ring. Some people prefer 18K gold for its richer color although it's extremely difficult to notice a color variance.
