Carat is the measurement which is used to quantify the weight of a precious metal. Thus, gold is also measured in terms of carats. Whenever you go to buy a gold product, remember to double check the carat value of the ornament. The various categories of gold are 24K gold, 18K gold, 14K gold and 10K gold.
Gold perhaps possesses one of the greatest mystiques of the world. It has charmed millions and millions over centuries. Man’s fascination with gold is perhaps the greatest love story of all time. No wonder gold rings are so popular. People realize the enormity of gifting a ring on occasions such as wedding, engagements and ‘eternity’ moments. Gold carries with it the designation of being the worlds favorite ‘metal’. Gold is a greater charmer; and it’s an undying charm. Gift gold and see the magic spread.
24K gold is the purist form of gold. And the most expensive too! However, there aren’t many who prefer to buy this type of gold. The reasons are simple and clear. The objective is to cut down on the price. Towards this purpose, there has been an understanding to unofficially recognize 14K gold as a highly pure form of gold. Now, if you go to a retailer and ask for gold (and not specify any carat value), he is more than likely to show you 14K gold. In fact 14K has become the benchmark for good gold quality. So, when you go to purchase your ring; remember to purchase a 14K gold ring.
Remember to purchase your 14K gold ring at an established retailer. Due to gold’s popularity, there is a huge counterfeit market operating. Always ask for a ‘genuinity’ certificate to qualify the quality of your gold. Choose any design or shape for your ring; fuel your imagination.
