Metals We Use
18K Gold
Made with 75% pure gold and 25% alloyed metals containing either copper, nickel, zinc or silver. Buying 18K gold is a great choice as it contains the highest amount of pure gold without compromising quality. Thanks to that 25% alloy in the mix, 18K gold is a suitable jewelry metal.
White Gold
White gold is an alloy of gold and at least one white metal, usually nickel or palladium. It has a bright white colour that resembles platinum or silver, but retains the value of gold. White gold is used in jewellery making as an alternative to sterling silver or platinum and is often plated with rhodium for extra shine and durability.
18K White Gold: 75% fine gold, 10 % copper, 8% nickel, 4.5% zinc, and 2.5% silver
YELLOW Gold
Yellow gold is a traditional material used for jewelry, coins, and many other ornamental items. It is a precious metal alloy composed of gold and other metals such as silver, copper, zinc, and palladium. Yellow gold is often valued more than other types of gold because it retains its color over time.
18K Yellow Gold: 75% gold, 12.5% copper, 12.5% silver
ROSE Gold
Rose gold is a unique precious metal alloy made from combining pure gold with a higher amount of copper than the traditional yellow gold. It has a pale pink hue and warm, romantic appearance that makes it popular in jewelry, especially among brides. Rose gold is also known under other names such as pink gold, red gold, and rose-colored gold.
18K Rose Gold: 75% pure 24K yellow gold combined with 25% copper
PalladiumIX
PalladiumIX is a revolutionary new metal blend created by Gordon Max that offers the look and feel of pure palladium jewelry without the hefty price tag. This unique metal composition consists primarily of sterling silver, making it an ideal choice for wedding bands and other special occasions.
Not only does PalladiumIX closely resemble pure palladium, but it also has numerous advantages over traditional metals like gold and platinum. It is more resistant to tarnish than gold, making it a great option for those seeking longevity in their jewelry. Furthermore, PalladiumIX is significantly lighter than platinum, offering a comfortable fit even at heavier weights.
Moreover, PalladiumIX also offers exceptional value for money. Thanks to its sterling silver base composition, this metal is generally more affordable than high-end metals like gold and platinum – while still providing exquisite craftsmanship and eye-catching beauty.
COLOR
Not rhodium plated since they are naturally a bright white colour. Does not tarnish. For yellow and rose gold colour plating will be applied.
PRICE
PalladiumIX rings cost almost half the cost of 18K Gold rings.
HARDNESS
PalladiumIX is a harder metal than gold or silver, which means a palladiumIX ring is harder to scratch, great for an engagement ring or wedding band.
Hypoallergenic
Our palladiumIX metals do not have any nickel content in them, which is the main cause of allergic reactions.
