Platinum Vs White Gold - The Similarities and Differences

How do I verify the authenticity of white gold?

The authenticity of white gold jewelry is easy to verify. Check for a hallmark stamp inside the piece or you can perform the magnet test: if your piece is attracted to the magnet, then it’s probably not pure white gold, because white gold isn’t magnetic.

Can white gold turn yellow over time?

Yes. White gold is an alloy of yellow gold and other white metals. The rhodium plating may eventually fade over time. Don’t worry, it can be restored with a simple re-rhodium plating by a jeweler.

Is white gold suitable for sensitive skin?

Generally, it’s suitable for sensitive skin. Make sure it’s nickel-free, and coated by a thick rhodium layer.

What maintenance does white jewelry require?

Keep your white gold jewelry pieces in good condition by cleaning them regularly in warm, soapy water. Avoid exposing them to harsh chemicals, perfumes, or chlorine as they may damage the rhodium plating.

How does white gold compare in price with silver or platinum?

White gold strikes a perfect balance in price. It's more accessible than platinum yet pricier than silver.

White Gold Jewelry: Meaning and Significance

Did you know white gold was first introduced in the early 20th century as a more accessible alternative to platinum? By blending pure gold with nickel, zinc, or silver, jewelers created a luminous metal in 14K and 18K that resists tarnishing.

White gold jewelry quickly rose to fame during the Art Deco era and has become a worldwide sensation for jewelers ever since. Even today, it graces the collections of stars like Beyoncé, Lady Gaga, and Taylor Swift, proving that white gold fine jewelry has a lasting appeal.
