IS IT ROSE GOLD, REAL GOLD?
December 15, 2020WHAT IS ROSE GOLD?
Rose gold is a mixture of yellow gold, copper and silver. The copper gives it a red color than yellow gold naturally has.
The silver helps to tone down the redness of the copper, achieving a subtle pink shade.
IS IT ROSE GOLD IS REAL GOLD?
Yes. When it comes to purity, rose gold is no different from yellow gold or white gold.
Hallmarked 18K gold contains 75% gold. 9K gold contains 38% gold. This is regardless of whether the gold is white, yellow or rose colored.
WHY ROSE GOLD IS MIXED WITH OTHER METALS?
Gold on its own is too soft to be used in its purest form. A piece of jewellery made out of pure gold would quickly bend out of shape.
That’s why gold, whatever the colour variation, must always be mixed with harder metals. In the case of rose gold, one of the metals used to harden the gold is copper.
This does not take away from the value of the gold in any way, but simply gives the gold a rigid shape – and a unique rosy glow.
DOES THE COLOR WILL FADED?
No, it will not faded. The copper within it can darken slightly with age, making its pink luster appear a little redder than when you bought it.
This is a natural feature that is considered desirable, because it gives rose gold jewelry an exquisite vintage look.
