What is the difference between 24k, 22k, and 18k gold?

When choosing gold jewelry, understanding the differences between 24k, 22k, and 18k is crucial. It all comes down to purity and practicality:

• Purity: The karat (k) signifies the proportion of pure gold in the alloy. 24k gold is the purest form, containing 99.9% gold and no other metals. This translates to a vibrant yellow color and a softer texture, making it unsuitable for daily wear jewelry as it can scratch or bend easily. 22k and 18k gold contain lower percentages of gold (91.7% and 75%, respectively) mixed with other metals like copper or silver. While slightly less valuable, these blends offer increased durability and scratch resistance, making them the preferred choice for everyday jewelry.
• Practicality: The choice between 24k, 22k, and 18k gold depends on the intended use. If you prioritize absolute purity and color vibrancy, 24k gold might be suitable for non-wearable items like collector coins. However, for everyday jewelry that requires strength and durability, 22k or 18k gold are more realistic options, offering a good balance between value, beauty, and practicality.
