Why an 18K Gold Ring?
People often ask what is the difference between the carats of gold jewelry, and are unsure weather to purchase a 14K or 18K Gold Ring. Pure gold contains 24 Karats of Gold, this is the unit by which gold purity and content is measured. Since 24K Gold is too soft for producing jewelry such as rings, manufacturers use alloys to strengthen jewelry and match it to the desired color.
The industry standard for 14K Gold is 58.3% gold, which is 14 divided by 24 (.583). For 18K Gold, the standard is 75% gold, which is 18 divided by 24 (.75).
18K Gold Ring is more pure than 14K -
18K Gold is therefore slightly softer than 14K Gold, but it has higher gold purity and will also be slightly richer or more yellow in color than 14K Gold, therefor a 18K Gold Ring will be of slightly better quality of gold than a 14K.
