What is more valuable white or yellow gold?

No. White gold and yellow gold have the same amount of gold/value in them, but white gold is made with nickel and few other properties which turn it white. Some white gold jewelry is slightly more expensive because most of it has a rhodium coating (which gives it that shiny bright white look) and that cost is factored in.


How much percent of gold is in white gold?

It depends on the Karat weight. 18K white gold is 75% gold and 25% alloy, 14K white gold is 58% gold and 42% alloy, 9K white gold is 32% gold and 68% alloy. White and yellow gold have exactly the same gold content. The only difference is the alloy mixed with the gold. White gold is usually yellow gold mixed with silver, palladium or nickel.


Is there such thing as white gold?

I guess technically there is only yellow gold when thinking of gold in the pure form. Alloys are mixed with yellow gold to produce white gold. Jewelry manufacturers purchase bricks of yellow gold which are 24ct. 24ct is the highest carat you can cast gold in. Any higher of a carat and the gold is too soft. The 24ct gold is then melted and turned into tiny pebbles. These pebbles are mixed with different alloys just before being cast into the jewelry mold. White gold is created by mixing nickel with yellow gold. Rose gold is created by mixing copper with yellow gold.


What is the difference between white gold and platinum?

White gold is the same thing as yellow gold just a different color, where as platinum is a more rare and precious metal making it far more valuable than gold.


Is white gold also known as platinum?

White gold is yellow gold that is mixed with other metals and yellow gold is made in the same way, and the difference is only in the metals used. In order to make the gold white, it is combined with metal alloys that are white in nature and plated with an extremely hard element called rhodium. Platinum, on the other hand, is a white metal and is used in jewelry in its pure form. It is Platinum white, so it does not need to be rhodium plated like white gold does.
