Wedding Band Outlet: About 18K White Gold Wedding Bands

All natural metals are a shade of grey except gold and copper. In order to achieve the white color in gold, it is being alloyed with other white metals such as Silver (10%) and Palladion (15%).

24K is pure gold. pure gold is too soft to be used for jewelry in general and wedding bands in particular. This is therefore another reason for the gold to be alloyed with other metals to strengthen the jewelry.
