Our Materials

Gold
What does 18K gold means?
Gold Karat is the measure of how much Gold is contained in a piece made with the metal. Karats measure the parts per 24, so that an item of 18 karat = 18 ⁄ 24 = 75% , meaning that it is composed for the 75% in gold ( 24 karat gold is considered 100% gold). 18 parts of the piece are gold and the remainder parts are made up of other metals.
