18kt White Gold, Rose Gold and Yellow Gold

Our diamond engagement rings are available in 18kt White Gold, Yellow Gold, and Rose Gold

Gold in its natural form is yellow and is completely pure at 24kt.
When combined with different metal alloys, it produces different coloured golds: we use 18kt rose and 18kt white gold, as well as the natural yellow gold.
18kt gold is harder than 24kt gold, which is considered too soft for use in jewellery.
