Characteristics

18 carat Gold carries 75% pure gold and the left over 25% other materials like zinc, silver, copper, or palladium.

In other words, the 18 carat gold means it has 18 parts of pure gold out of 24 total parts and the remaining 6 parts alloy.

18K Gold Color

18K gold is available in different colors.

  • The 25% mixing of other metals with 75% pure gold actually brings a variety of color effects to 18K gold.
  • When the higher share of copper is mixed in a 25% portion of other metals, the result is rose gold or rosy shine 18K jewellery.
  • Similarly, when you witness white color 18 Karat jewellery, it means a large proportion of nickel or silver or palladium is added in the 25% share of other metals. 

You might have observed different yellow colors of 18K gold shades. It is the same reason that the mixing of alloys in pure gold brings a variety of yellow shades to the jewellery.

  • For example, adding 12.5% copper and 12.5% silver in a 25% share of other metals causes 18K normal yellow color gold. However, if added 15% copper and 10% silver, the yellow shade of 18K gold jewellery would become darker.

18K Gold Tarnish

The 18K gold jewellery can tarnish its polish with the passage of time. It is due to the alloy (other metals) mixed with pure gold which normally fades away giving the 18K gold appearance of losing shine. But, remember that gloss of pure gold content never diminishes.

Taking Care of 18 Karat Gold Jewellery

The routine work conditions can also bring bad effects on the shine of 18K gold items. It is recommended to clean the jewellery regularly with warm water and dry it off with a soft cloth. Take off the gold jewellery like rings and bangles and put it on the safe side when washing your vehicle, clothes, dishes, or taking a bath or swimming.

Is 18K Gold Hypoallergenic

The higher-karat gold jewellery has the added advantage of being hypoallergenic. It means the jewellery that enjoys more pure gold content is less likely to trigger skin diseases. The 18K gold jewellery is safe to wear and it does not cause skin irritation or any type of skin allergy.

However, if you feel skin irritation, which is a very rare case with 18K gold then go for higher karat jewellery or consult with your doctor.
