More info on gold for you today. Why should you choose it for your jewellery?

Gold does not erode over time. It cannot be tarnished or oxidised.

Gold, because it is a softer metal in its pure form, is beautifully malleable and can therefore be shaped into almost any design.

Gold is usually alloyed with other metals including zinc, copper and platinum in order to make it hard and durable enough for use in jewellery. 18ct gold is 75% gold, but the UK’s minimum gold standard for jewellery is 9ct, which is only 37.5% gold.

Gold is naturally a deep, rich yellow colour, but the alloying with other metals creates a subtle pallette of different colours for you to choose from.
