YellowGoldSplendor

Hello, yellow! 18 karat gold in the classic warm hue takes center stage in fine jewelry and fashion, alike. From bright-as-the-sun high-shine styles to subtle hand-etched textured finishes, yellow gold has taken the driver’s seat from its next of kin, white gold, and sterling silver. For centuries, yellow gold has been a symbol of luxury and prestige. In fact, yellow gold has long been coveted for its elegance and value, as well as its representation of wealth and sophistication. It is often associated with royalty and deities.

Scientifically, yellow gold gets its genetic makeup from the heavens above. All the gold found on Earth came from the debris of dead stars. As our planet formed, steady meteorite impacts brought the gold element to the Earth’s crust and core. As molten iron from impact craters sank to the center of the planet, it took gold and other heavy elements along with it. These gold deposits would be discovered by humans centuries later and skyrocket to be the world’s most treasurable metal.
