What is rose bold?
Rose gold is a blend of yellow gold and copper. The more
copper in the blend, the rosier the hue. In the same regard, the higher karat
the lighter the shade will be because it contains more pure gold. In the end, how deep the blush
comes down to ratios and personal preference.
In some cases, 18k rose gold rings will contain silver
or palladium along with the gold and copper, while lesser karat rings might contain some
silver or zinc. For those who have allergies to consider it is important to
talk to your jeweler regarding the actual makeup of the ring you are
considering.
Advantages of rose gold engagement rings
One reason people fancy rose gold is its romantic vintage
look, but beyond that, this precious gold offers practical advantages. For
instance, it makes an attractive choice for people with nickel allergies which
can be experienced with white gold and is more durable than yellow gold.
Aside from these physical advantages
rose gold is also an affordable choice that compliments all skin tones.
Rose gold engagement rings provide a classy-looking
ring that’s versatile and yet distinct. Today, you can find them available in vintage or contemporary
designs.
