Sauron watched this video while making the one ring for tips
And then he was too cheap to spring for white gold so he took the yellow instead…
Haha boy you hell
I prefer white gold over the traditional yellow one since it is less likely to attract thieves.
That is the dumbest reason I've ever heard....damnz!! if you're living in that kind of neighborhood.. then just don't wear ANYTHING, or get a nice seXxy Hand-cannon, baby! (',
Also it looks like silver which is pretty cheap in comparison.
Exactly 🥸😎
Yes
i love the slight warm color of unplated white gold. My engagement ring is 18k unplated white gold and I could not love it more.
I feel the same way, honestly.
One of the pieces of jewelry that I wear daily is an unplated ring that looks decidedly off-white in the right light. To me, though, that just adds to its appeal. I can't imagine a context where "it looks like it's made of literal gold" is a bug rather than a feature.
In general, I just don't *get* plating precious metals. They all look nice.
@@NyanCatHerder You actually sound like one of the smartest ones in here, people are like zombies! I concur, no precious metal should be plated w/another...I go a step further, I believe in only wearing 18K to 24K Golden coloured Gold, and .9999 Platinum jewelry, keep metals pure..
I was in a jewellers one time and the resident ‘expert’ was telling me how white gold is simply rhodium plated yellow gold. Needless to say I headed for the door. Some jewellers are clueless and it’s so refreshing to see someone who knows their stuff! :)
I think he meant something different. A lot of mass producing jewelry companies, mostly from Turkey and China, use yellow gold for its better casting and stamping abilities and slightly lower price, then using rhodium plating for achieving white color, mostly Chines companies even using thick silver coating before rhodium plating, so it will take longer to see yellow gold. My point is, most of resellers are buying from those companies and it is common they will sell you a rhodium plated yellow gold, they might not even know it is yellow gold.
@@TheWinkick Thank you for this. It’s very interesting but I don’t think it applies to the jewellers I was in. They were supposedly ’high end’ and saying it applied to all WG produced. I’ve got a ton of stories when it comes to jewellers. Another is when I asked to see if they had any aquamarines and they wordlessly gave me lapis, or when another was trying to sell me a huge pink CZ stating it was a sapphire. I also used to work as a jeweller and my boss had no idea about a lot of things and would feed rubbish to the customers to try and sound good. It just really grates on me since customers look to jewellers for expert knowledge when sometimes all the jeweller cares about is selling, or just don’t know much beyond the very basics and don’t care to learn. Anyway,, sorry to waffle! 😂
Unfortunately he was correct. The introduction of white metals such as palladium or nickel and silver give gold a pale yellow colour which needs to be plated wirh Rhodium to make it white.
I have looked at a recent spec. sheet for a white gold alloy and the range is from 53% palladium to 47% gold to 53% palladium,16% silver and 31%gold.
These alloys look white but as you can see the trade off is less actual gold. The trend is more for White gold these days, but as my daughter and wife will tell you. It soon turns back to gold if indeed it is made of gold.....which is yellow.
@@nickreeder2979 there’s many stages in creating jewelry, one person doesn’t typically do everything from start to finish. A caster casts a setter sets etc.
I had the same thing happened to me at Tiffany’s. The sales rep told me, “There’s no such thing as white gold.”
THANKS FOR EXPLAINING SO WELL A QUESTION THAT HAS LONG PUZZLED ME. I enjoyed your segment very much. Thank you for sharing.
thank u. at first i thought my jewelry was fake. now i know why my diamond is mounted on white while the rest of my ring is yellow. thanks.
I worked in a jewellers for over 4 years and just learnt more in a few minutes, sufficed to say the training was rubbish 🤣
White gold just feels classier. More whisper, less shout.
I love your video dude. Now i know how to compare between platinum vs white gold. Thsnks you so much to share with us. Looking forward of the next video
As do I , prefer the warmth and hue of the yellow gold a slice of the sun on moi.💫💞💫
Yep
This is the explanation I needed! Thank you!
It's great to see a South African UA-camr
collective video to ur viewer getting to know about the white gold &the yellow gold
Thank you for this video! Excellent presentation! 💯 I have to wear yellow, white gold or Platinum. Very sensitive skin, but I love them all three very much! 💞💯 Would love to see more videos and what you all have to offer!! Sincerely, Jen 🎊💞✨🎶🎉💖✨🎈💯🎊
I love the warmth of yellow and or rose gold. Great presentation and a beautiful smile, thanks.🙃
✨ one plus : Thanku you for this vido ! Excellent presentation 💯 I have to wear yeallow , white gold or platinum.
Very sensitive skin , cut . 💕 would love to see more videos and what you all have to offer !! Sincerely.
Very interesting. Thanks for sharing.
I'm working for more than 25 years in the precious metals branch. I haven't seen a 18ct white gold with a palladium content of 25%. It would be too expensive. Normally they are using silver, tin and 10 till 16% from Palladium.
I love yellow gold
Interesting! Personally, I love white gold.
Don't be cheap with watered-down gold, keep Gold Golden.....then get pure Platinum if you want white metal! Mene jewelry is where I get pure, not junk metal....
I never liked that a pure 75% gold alloy got coated with another metal. It kinda defuses the prupose of gold, being made of gold becomes pure status in the end. I wonder if you can order jewelry from white gold without the coating.
I love all golds I love too mix it up x
I personally prefer yellow gold than white gold, some people assume white gold is silver. So I just wear silver if I'm not wearing yellow gold.
Makes total sense and it makes so much sense...I can't believe hardly anyone says this.
Nickle is often added to gold to make white gold. That is why some people have an allergic reaction when they wear white gold they are allergic to the nickel in white gold.
Nickel has been banned from jewelry use in some countries, including the U.K., I believe. Perhaps that's why he didn't mention it.
@@Kelly-pp1et most countries adopted palladium a long time ago for the very reason that nickle is toxic....dunno where you're from but the only nickle white gold alloys would be, would be in pieces pre 1970 or so.
@@Kelly-pp1et not sure what alloy of 14ct you're explaining, but palladium doesn't make up the full balance of your alloying properties...and you're right it is expensive...at the cost of not being toxic or being horribly brittle, or age hardening to the point of fracturing or metal fatigue...i've never used a nickle based white gold and never will 😉
@@bernardblack6997 nickel and zinc are still the most widely used in the world palladium is too expensive for this to be economically feasible. Honestly you've probably used a nickel alloyed gold and never even realized it
@@calebwiggins3042 again, dunno what part of the world you're in but here in Australia, it's industry standard to use palladium in all white gold alloys. I've been a manufacturing jeweller for close to 20 years and have never used anything else. not sure what countries consider a toxic metal to be standard but its definately not something used here.
Very interesting!!!
Very professional..
very good video always wondered about the difference between white and yellow gold 18 kt
I've actually always wondered why people would buy white gold jewellery - looks exactly like silver but costs a lot more...
Yeah I don't get the point of white gold when you have to keep replating it with rhodium to keep the white color when you can just wear silver or platinum since people are going to assume that your jewelry is one of the two anyway and they're both naturally white. Plus if I'm paying good money for something solid gold, I want it to look like gold.
White gold is for the high classes ppl?
I prefer white gold because my skin is cool toned. Yellow gold is more suited to warm skin undertones.
@@jennifermccarthy8493 hey, thanks for the replay. But why gold and not silver then? I'm also cool toned and I wear silver (and have a nice collection :D)
@@AnneKyfee oh I still love and buy silver don't get me wrong but I suppose as I have gotten older I have started to incorporate some more white gold in for special pieces that I invested more money into and want to have for a very long time ...more valuable i suppose and i will pass down to my kids. I will buy white gold when I want to buy a special fine jewellery piece and then silver for more costume jewelry style and demi jewellery
Annealed 24k gold is indeed quite soft, but it can be work hardened so it isn't always as floppy as a noodle.
Hi sir...I want to know about yellow gold.white gold. Rose gold have a value or it's pawnable...
Thank you for the great video! Which type of stone was used in the turquoise-blue colored ring near the end? It was really pretty! Thank you!
looks like aquamarine?
@@fishtie894 Thank you, Fishtie!
Thank you
How to find palladium
I have Ring but it is not silver, steel i dont know
Thank you for the information 😁
Wow🥰i love everything nd anything about gold,silver,platinum,nd jewelries💖
Thank you so much for explaining the difference I’ve asked severalJewelers and nobody’s ever been able to tell me so again thank you very much
Thank You.I Love white gold
Did you know the silver fillings everyone has are made of mercury zinc silver tin and copper, that's alot of metal in a tiny spot. I loved working with it in dentistry it's so interesting and so soft before it cures
Wow, great, thanks for the information
I loved the music on the background more than the vedio 🌞
Informative
Is it wrong for me to wear my white gold and yellow gold tennis chains together? Both aren’t the same length and both aren’t the same mm size
Please can any one guide me if tanzanite is a good investment?
Is white gold hypoallergenic? My skin is very sensitive and I can't wear copper,silver,or nickel.
My first wedding ring set was a hand-me-down (broke college students) in white gold. I got so sick of everyone asking me why I had silver ring. When we upgraded the set, the new one was in yellow gold.
It seems you have to maintain your own judgment against such people. White gold is absolutely gorgeous

@@Pentax67 love white gold as well.
yellow fold all the way. I love the traditional look.
Nobody call silver color white because it is silver, I don’t know how those pathetic people could lies themselves. Gold is yellow in human history.
Can you mix a white gold wedding band and a yellow gold wedding band and add yellow gold to make three rings out of two?
I actually never knew that about the 24k Gil being bendable
how about ag990 jewelry? is it worth the price?
Great video! Ill share
Beautiful and informative about gold rings! Thanks a lot.😁😍😍😍😍😍
Ciao informazioni palladium white gold quanto vale
I want to learn high jewelry design, about diamonds and gemstones and manufacturing and work under jewelry brand. Where do i go and learn?
Yellow all the way!
My white gold engagement ring has to be re-plated every year. It turns a noticeable dull grey. 🙁
How many karat is your ring?
Excuse me sir... can make yellow gold the white gold? I have a ring here white gold... so I want to make this yellow gold... to melt this... I hope we can make... thank you for your answer...
Gold, also called golden, is a yellow-orange color which is a representation of the color of the element gold. The web color gold (also referred to as orange-yellow) is sometimes referred to as golden to distinguish it from the color metallic gold.
Ok?
Infomative.❤👍😇
Why palladium not platinum seeing as it is now more expensive?
Have a 0.5 oz 24k wedding band with overlapped, not connected ends. Love the satin finish. Pure gold jewelry is common in India and Asia. Very hard to find in USA.
So? Let me rephrase, solid gold above 18K so 21/22/24K is hard to find in the western world (im from Europe same story) asia and africa and the middle east do have plenty gold jewelry any carat.
That why i buy mine pure gold here in Indonesia Borneo
What are the different shades of gold
Would you do a video about electrum/green gold?
You buy diamond?
Do you buy locally made gold
No one alloys with brass. One would have no control over color. Brass is a mixture of copper and zinc. 18k yellow gold has copper and silver added in equal (12.5%) proportions generally
Interesting ❤
Hi Sarel! Hoe gaan dit?
What about rose gold and red gold
love both and will wear both together
I wear a 22 kt earring .I usually make .925 or .999 silver rings or whatever my customer wants. I prefer yellow gold. What is the compostion of 22 kt gold ?

OR IS IT POSSIBLE? JUST CURIOUS THATS ALL SORRY IF OVER SAID BUT STAY HEALTHY BE BLESSED AND GET VACCINATED GUYS MAY GOD HELP US ALL!
I’ve always felt white good looks to much like silver. Better to go for the timeless yellow gold in my opinion.
i want to learm mix 18 gold
What's added for rose gold? I thought it was copper.
Hello, I’m looking for advise on how to change a white gold Diana style ring into yellow gold, would this be an straight forward job ? And is it worth doing as I feel yellow gold looks better than white gold
Did you ever find a solution?
@@digitallocations1423 nope no solutions
I feel like this job would be difficult because you would have to essentially change the entire composition of the band. In other words, the ring would have to be recreated with yellow gold alloy to identically match the current ring. You could look into plating the white gold with yellow gold plating, but that would have the issue of it fading off.
Has your white gold turned to yellow? I.e. was it ordinary yellow gold and Rhodium plated.? Most white gold rings are made this way. I have bought a plating kit to keep my daughter's white gold wedding band white when it fades back to yellow.
they can also heat treat it or chemically change the white to yellow just like lab created gemstones they can resurface gold. my name ring was white gold on the bottom back in 94 . over the years into the millenium it faded in the corners and the jewelry shop resurfaced and made the whole ring back into yellow in 2008 i liked it better the second time and they made look like new i was in tears . so yes it can be done.
Nice
What is rose gold? In india we have some jewelry with rose gold color.
You didn't mention WHY stones are often set in white gold with yellow gold band. STRENGTH.
actually, I think it's because white will show the color of the diamond better. Didn't he say that the strength is about the same?
@@lilyl1517 you are correct. At 1:08 he states the properties are the same, including strength.
@@lilyl1517 Nonsense. Yellow gold trumps all. BUT I do love silver too.
Always love your tutorials could you maybe do something with Rose Gold, it's getting very popular with Watches. I'm looking at a Breitling Super Ocean Heritage that uses a Rose Gold Bezel would love to know a bit more about it.
Ah yes I'd like to look at rose gold as a WATCH metal, especially because there are so many brands that adopt rose gold. Robert, we've got an unboxing video of the Bremont Argonaut coming soon, will you be watching that?

@@BurrellsUk I try to catch all your vids, I'm subscribed.
I like yellow gold
But there are several yellow golds.
Very educational..!i
sir how about the platinum, what the difference with platinum to white gold?
Well I thought they primarily used platinum in white gold, but either way they're both PGM metals.
platinum is its own element (usually 95% platinum 5% alloy, usually ruthenium but some use copper, cobolt or even fine gold)
Platinum can stand alone, no alloys needed.
platinum is a different metal, that's the difference.
Well the main difference is...if you think you're too good for silver..and you want that color..you're better off with platinum. No offense to anyone. I think I'm too good for fake jewelry so...I can be a snob too.
Can u tall me this
I really like yellow gold! But in my country it's not common, women here prefer rose gold jewelry.
what is the name of your country?
@@darshanabhattacharyya6939 Russia
Here we love yellow gold Indonesia
What about 22gold and 21gold ?
What's the percentage for 14 k if 18 k 75 percent
I wonder what would happen if you would rodium plate stainles steel? Would it look similar to white gold since there is a plating?
Have it gold plated
Stainless steel already has similar look to rhosium plating
Thanks so much. I haven’t done any casting since high school, this brings back memories. My question is: why do I get a reaction to 14K yellow gold pierced earrings? I assumed the alloy had some nickel in it for brightness, but now I’m not sure.
could be anything I don't have a lot of info but could be it pierced poorly, it's getting constantly bumped, you're touching it, sleeping on it, externally threaded jewellery, you put a hoop in too soon the list goes on and on I'd recommend you go to a reputable piercer and ask them
how do we buy 22 karat gold? usually people just sell either 18 k or 14 k
Hey Jacocje sells some 22k gold. He has a UA-cam channel. Only recommending him because he seems legit and fair enough prices and I think businesses like his should get recognition.
The best in the world market today 21k solid white gold formula life time guaranties. Stable wold market value.
I wear yellow gold but I do also have my white engagement ring and wedding band in white gold.
I wish the music wasn't so loud, can't hear what you're saying
Which goes better with an IJ diamond? 14k white gold or 14k yellow gold?
White gold looks better if it fitted with diamond
Seems rather silly to me that people rhodium plate white gold and platinum when rhodium over silver could be used. What a waste of money as no one will ever know what's under the rhodium. Freshly polished silver IMO looks a heck of a lot like rhodium. As a lover of rhodium, but not of having to get get rings plated constantly, I've simply switched to wearing silver. Honestly, the average person would have no idea if it's silver, platinum or rhodium anyway (not that I care that others know what I'm wearing, but it's interesting nonetheless).
Yes they wouldn't know.
I for one can't tell the difference.
So what do you do when the plating wears off the silver?
No what's silly is..you can just use platinum or silver. And be done!
I love white gold
can a 14 k gold be melted together with Rhodium? 58% hold and 30% rhodium melted together?
I wonder if the Rhodium plating on white gold can cause skin irritation? My wife’s wedding ring and engagement ring started causing a rash on her finger but it wasn’t until she had been wearing them for seven years.
@@PlaywithDaisy my wedding ring is yellow gold and I’ve worn it non stop for eight years and it’s never given me any problems.
how many karat is your ring 14k / 18k? do you wear it in the shower? does it slip off? is it still shiny these days? im just curious. thanks in advance!
@@isabellaquijano5617 my wife hasn’t had the rash in a while but I’m not sure of the karats on hers. My wedding ring is 14K yellow gold and I wear it in the shower and everywhere else. Mine gets a little scuffed up and dirty from working in it but a little bit of metal polish shines it back up pretty nice, it brings back the shine on my wife’s white gold ring too.
Never heard of 25% palladium alloy, 16% is the highest that you can get in Sweden.🤔
Hi mate i would like to buy gold coin or gold bar could you help me?by the way i am from philippines hope you could help me mate cheers god bless!
can u be kind how much is an ounce gold now mine is 24 karat thanks dear alot keep on teaching us greetings from Malta
Price fluctuates daily, you can Google it!
hint: there's such a thing like internet that has been around for years, there's also a search app called google for example to make it easy to search things on the internet, hope Malta get either one of these things one day soon, so you can take advantage of it. Kind regards and internet user.
Pure Solid White Gold Formula it's life time Guaranties, for the next 5 years stable world market price, strong better that yellow gold and rhodium plate our palladium mix yellow gold metal.
