What You Need to Know About Gold

Steeped in tradition, gold is sleek, simple, and carries an air of prestige and refinement. The amount of gold in any piece of jewelry is measured in karats, with pure gold being 24K. Gold is a soft metal and in its purest form, it’s not strong enough to be used as a wedding ring – it requires the strength of other, less flexible metals such as zinc and copper. All of our yellow gold wedding rings are 14K, the recommended size for daily wearing.

Lastly, tungsten wedding bands are a fraction of the price of gold wedding bands, making them a much more affordable option for the modern groom.
