"Classy look, Fair price..... White Gold Diamond Rings are just right.."


White gold diamond rings certainly look the part. They are classy, wear well and do last....they even have some of the luster of Platinum, but where do you get white gold from?

Since pure yellow gold is too soft to be of use in the jewelery industry, it is normally mixed in to an alloy of white metal.
It is normally mixed with silver or palladium to make it harder and more durable.
This is in the ratio of 75% gold and 25% silver or palladium.

White gold has mainly been an alloy of 18 carat Yellow gold and Nickel.
The main disadvantage being that Nickel commonly causes dermatitis, through allergic reactions with the skin.
White gold rings can also be coated with Rhodium which shares many properties with Platinum.

Rhodium is highly resistant to corrosion, and is extremely reflective.
It is also 5 times more expensive than Platinum that's why its used as a coating and not to make the actual ring.
The rhodium plating is used to make the white gold look whiter as its normal color is greyish.

Even though Rhodium is white and very hard, it eventually wears away.
To keep white gold diamond engagement rings looking their best they should be re-plated with Rhodium each 12 to 18 months.
Your local jeweler should be able to re-plate your ring at a fair price.
If you happen to be looking for a wedding ring but your budget is limited, consider shopping for white gold diamond rings. As long as you know about any allergies your bride to be might have, you're good to go!!
