Product Description

Gold comes in several values including *0k gold, *4k gold, *8k gold, and *4k gold. *4 karat gold is the most pure and therefore the most expensive. In most instances, gold is stamped to reflect its purity. Measurements such as *2 karat gold are not acceptable to use in the manufacturing of jewelry. *8kt gold, however, is one of the most widely accepted measurements for jewelry. It is perhaps the best to use for jewelry and ring settings as the color is rich and this percentage of gold is very strong and durable.

The following chart will demonstrate the differences between the different karats and how they are combined with other alloys. This will show you how the karat gold price is determined:
