What is white gold?

White gold is created by combining yellow gold with white metals (such as palladium, silver or nickel) to achieve its bright, luminous colour.

It is typically coated with a thin layer of rhodium to enhance its brilliance and durability.

Why choose an 18K white gold ring?

18K white gold contains 75% pure gold and 25% metal alloys, offering a perfect balance of strength and luxury.

By comparison:

  • 14K white gold contains 58.5% pure gold and 41.5% alloys, making it more affordable but less precious and slightly more susceptible to oxidation
  • 9K white gold contains just 37.5% pure gold and 62.5% alloys, making it more accessible, but also more prone to wear and tarnishing

18K white gold remains the preferred choice for engagement rings and fine jewellery, thanks to its exceptional brilliance and lasting durability.

What is the difference between white gold and yellow gold?

Yellow gold is natural gold combined with silver and copper, retaining its iconic warm tone.

White gold, by contrast, is alloyed with white metals and coated with rhodium, giving it a more neutral, contemporary colour.

White gold and diamonds form a timeless pairing for truly elegant jewellery.

How do I choose a white gold and diamond ring?

Consider the following:

  • The quality of the diamond (cut, clarity, colour, carat)
  • An 18K white gold alloy for optimal durability
  • The setting style (claw, pavé, halo), which greatly influences the brilliance of the piece
  • The ring size, for a perfect, comfortable fit

What is the difference between a white gold ring and a platinum ring?

Platinum is a naturally white metal, denser and rarer than white gold. It requires no rhodium plating, but is more costly and heavier to wear.

An 18K white gold ring is a more accessible alternative in fine jewellery, with a comparable brilliance.

What is the average price of a white gold and diamond ring?

Price varies according to the weight of the metal, the quality of the diamond and the design.

As a guide, pieces range from a few hundred to several thousand pounds, depending on the size and purity of the stone.

If you are unsure, a local jeweller can measure your finger size for you. As a reference point, a size 52 (UK size L½) is the most common.)

White gold

White gold is modernity.

The metal that lets the stone speak. A clean, contemporary white that places diamonds and sapphires in full light.

Our white gold is solid 18-carat gold, rhodium-plated to intensify its whiteness and bring out its full brilliance.

It is the metal of contemporary pieces: it steps aside for the stone and keeps only its light. Diamonds and sapphires find their finest water here.

All your questions about rings white gold

The questions we are asked most often about rings white gold: materials, care, symbolism and styling advice.

Does white gold yellow or oxidise over time?

White gold does not oxidise, but it can slightly yellow over time due to its yellow gold base.

This change occurs as the rhodium plating, which protects and brightens the white gold, gradually wears away.

Re-plating with rhodium every 2 to 5 years restores its original brilliance and prevents any dulling.

How do I care for and clean a white gold ring?

  • Clean with warm soapy water and a soft brush
  • Avoid harsh chemicals
  • Schedule a professional service every 2 years to preserve the jewellery's brilliance

Why is 18k white gold recommended for engagement rings?

18k white gold is precious, durable and timeless.

It enhances the beauty of gemstones such as diamonds and sapphires, and withstands everyday wear better than lower-purity alloys.

Do white gold and diamonds make a good combination?

Yes, white gold and diamonds create a perfect harmony:

  • It enhances the diamond's natural brilliance
  • It offers a timeless, refined look
  • Ideal for an engagement ring or an exceptional piece of jewellery

What types of gemstones can be set in a white gold ring?

White gold complements all gemstones:

  • Diamond for timeless brilliance
  • Sapphire and ruby for a vibrant touch of colour
  • Emerald for a naturally elegant finish

Are white gold rings suitable for everyday wear?

Yes, an 18k gold ring is crafted to last.

That said, it is best to avoid knocks and prolonged exposure to water or harsh chemicals.

What is the significance of a white gold engagement ring?

White gold symbolises purity, elegance and eternal love.

It is frequently chosen for engagement rings for its refined, timeless brilliance.
