Fantastic White Gold Chains

It may happen that you prefer white colored precious materials to the yellow of traditional gold, but you find silver too easily tarnished or the platinum too expensive. All we can say in that case: why not to try white gold? White gold alloys became fashionable since 1920s at first mainly as a substitute for platinum, the latter being rare and generally much harder to work with than gold. But time flies, and currently white gold is a jewelry metal in its own right. Very desirable in more than wide circles of jewelry lovers, it quickly became a popular alternative to silver, platinum or yellow gold.

Just as the yellow gold, its white counterpart contains varying amounts of pure gold, as well as one or more white metals to lighten its color and assure its solidity and strength at the same time. The most frequently used metals are nickel, palladium, manganese and platinum. Copper, silver or may can as well be added to form the needed alloy. Anyway, most modern white gold jewelry has the tendency to be crafted with a gold-palladium-silver alloy to avoid superfluos costs due to the use of rare metals as well as possible allergenic reactions to nickel. A rhodium metal plating is normally applied to new white gold jewelry to give it the perfect luster.

As for the purity of white gold, it is expressed in karats exactly in the same way as with yellow gold.
