Women's gold bracelets

Gold jewelry never goes out of style. They are a kind of message to the outside world, indicating the wealth, status and taste of the owner. It is for this reason that a rare woman will deny herself the purchase of another golden “trinket”, if she has the opportunity to purchase it.

Gold jewelry can be chosen both for an accomplished lady and for a very young girl, the main thing is to follow the basic rules when choosing:

1. You should choose a thing based not only on the style of a certain outfit, but also with an eye on the future, because jewelry is expensive items, they are acquired for a long time, and often even inherited;
2. It is always worth trying on as many jewelry you like as possible in order to understand what exactly will suit your face and most emphasize individuality;
3. It is advisable to purchase jewelry made of precious metals, completing them together in single ensembles (earrings with a bracelet, ring or chain).

There is a fashion for jewelry made of precious stones and metals. For example, this season, romantic and vintage style jewelry is in trend.The national line is represented by gizmos made in oriental traditions. And for young ladies, items with inserts of multi-colored enamel, as well as motifs with butterflies and flowers are offered.

When buying a gold item, be sure to pay attention to its sample, which shows the percentage of pure gold and alloying metals in the alloy.

On the territory of the Russian Federation, the metric system of samples is adopted, the highest is 999 samples (this means that this alloy is actually pure gold, having 1 part of impurities per 999 parts of gold).

In the world practice of jewelry, the carat system is used, in which a metal corresponding to 24 carats is considered pure.

However, pure gold is a very soft metal, so it is not usually used to make jewelry. To give strength, copper, nickel, palladium, platinum and other components are added to it. In this case, the sample can be reduced several times, but the beauty of the metal will remain at a high level. The ratio of carat and trial measures is as follows:

1. 22 carats correspond to 917 standard;
2. 18 carats - 750 samples;
3. 14 carats - 585 assay;
4. 10 carats - 417 sample;
5. 9 carats - 375 assay;
6. In some countries, for example, in Germany, there is an 8K marking corresponding to 333 samples.

It should be noted that eight-carat and nine-carat gold are no longer classified as precious metals, but are considered jewelry. Also, gold-plated jewelry will also be considered expensive jewelry, the gilding of which is nevertheless described in carats, for example, on the price tag of exquisite Oscar de la Renta jewelry, 14 carat gold is indicated.

There are three main colors of gold available on the market: yellow, white and rose.

Yellow - this is the natural color of gold, but it can have different shades depending on the amount and type of additives.

White gold is obtained by mixing yellow gold with white metal alloys, therefore, it can never be 24 carat. White gold has become popular not so long ago, this was due to its rhodium plating, which makes the color of the metal brighter and retains it for a long time.

Pink gold obtained by adding copper to pure metal. Standard rose gold is 18 carat, which means it has 75% pure gold and 25% copper, however, some brands, such as Tiffany, have their own proprietary composition of rose gold alloy, which cannot be found anywhere else.

Italian gold is distinguished by a special color, which is pure yellow, without the slightest reddish tinge. Another feature of the products of Italian jewelers is the subtlety of detail and numerous openwork elements.

In recent years, black gold products have been in demand, which are produced by adding impurities such as cobalt, sulfur and chromium to the alloy. The result is 18K 750 gold that has all the qualities of regular gold, but comes at a higher price due to the complexity of the manufacturing process.

Blown or hollow gold, which can be found in the windows of jewelry stores, is not a special grade or variety. This is a way to make bulk products, in which they weigh very little, because they are hollow. Such jewelry looks like cast and solid, but they have a more economical price tag and do not injure the skin when worn, like their more massive counterparts.

Medical gold, which is sometimes erroneously considered to be of high quality, is in fact not gold at all. This sample is an alloy based on brass, in some cases covered with gold.
