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.


What holds more value yellow or white gold?

The value of yellow and white gold is based on the purity of the metal, not the color. 24K gold is the purest form, but it is too soft for jewelry, so it is typically mixed with other metals. The value of yellow and white gold will be similar if they have the same purity.


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.


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 18K white gold more expensive than 18K gold?

18K white gold and 18K yellow gold are typically priced similarly as the difference in cost comes from the other metals used in the alloy to give the gold its color. The value of the gold is the same in both cases.
