    Choosing the Right Karat for White Gold Jewelry

    Understanding gold karat is key to selecting the right piece. White gold comes in several purities, each offering different advantages in terms of strength, color, and price.

    9K White Gold

    • Contains 37.5% pure gold

    • More affordable and highly durable

    • Slightly duller tone, but great for everyday wear

    14K White Gold

    • Contains 58.5% pure gold

    • Industry standard for balance of purity and strength

    • Softer and more luxurious—ideal for fine jewelry and special occasions

    Tip: For engagement rings or pieces worn daily, 14K is often preferred. For luxe, occasional wear, 18K adds that premium edge.
