Things to Check Before Buying a Gold Jewellery

PURITY TO BE PRIORITY

The first step is to check for gold’s purity mark to understand its authenticity. This mark tells you the degree of purity of gold used for that piece of jewellery.

CONCIOUS OF COST

The karat of gold and the fluctuating market value are perhaps the most relevant factors that influence its price. Keep an eye out as its price changes everyday.

HAVE AN EYE ON HALLMARK

Things to look out for on your hallmarked jewellery are: the selected number with the BIS, the year of hallmark & the jeweller’s mark.

CHECK FOR KARAT

Gold’s purity is measured in ‘Karats’ or ‘K’. 24K refers to 100% pure gold. However, it's also available in 18kt, 14kt, 10kt.

Colours of GOLD

                                                                                           Explore the various hues of gold including yellow, white, and rose each offering distinct characteristics and appeal.

 

Diamond ring in yellow gold

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.

Diamond ring in white gold

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.

Diamond ring in rose gold

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.
