Did you know – Gold varieties
Gold comes in a variety of colours. The most common are yellow, white and rose however the only true gold is yellow. Coloured gold is actually a mixture of different metals called an “alloy”, made by mixing pure gold with other metals creating the various colours and hardnesses. In fact, all yellow gold, with the exception of 24 carat gold, are also alloys since they’re mixed with other metals in different quantities.
