18K gold has
a lower gold content, why is it more expensive than gold?
Speaking of 18k gold, rose gold, platinum and other jewelry,
I believe everyone can't put it down. Compared with gold, K Jin has a little
more fashion and exquisiteness, but have you ever thought whether it is
Cartier or Bulgari, it is more than K-gold products. Gold commodities are
expensive, and the gold content of K gold is relatively low but has a
relatively high price. Is there any secret that the merchant can't sue, or is K
gold really higher than gold in value?
▲K gold jewelry is now the most popular choice.
Simply speaking, K gold is an alloy of gold and other
metals. It can produce different colors after being mixed with different
metals, so there is a difference between platinum, gold and rose gold. The
difference in gold content in the alloy also makes the so-called The difference
between the 18K (gold content 75%), 14k (58.33%), 10k (41.67%) and other K gold
types. In general, other metals blended in K gold, even precious metals, are
mostly lower in price than gold itself, so from a purely economic point of
view, the value of K gold is actually not as good as gold, and for K gold, it
has never been Like the statement of pure gold preservation.

But after K gold is made into a finished product, the price
is very different, because K gold can not be measured from the perspective of
preservation, it is more inclined to pure decorations. Its strength lies in its
stronger hardness than gold, its stable chemical properties, and its diverse
colors. It is the perfect partner for all kinds of expensive stones. Therefore,
in terms of price measurement, K gold products are more similar to handicrafts.
Process, styling, brand premiums, and the value of inlays are often more
decisive pricing factors than material costs.
In terms of processing methods, gold jewelry does not
require large machines, and ordinary workshops can be processed. K gold
processing requires large machines and professional personnel to operate. The
k-gold process is more demanding than gold and has to go through more than a
dozen processes to complete. Another feature of gold is its softness, so it is
difficult to inlay a variety of exquisite styles, especially when inlaid with
pearls, precious stones, and jadeites. Gold jewelry is mainly based on simple
shapes. However, because of the presence of other metals, K gold is very
suitable for the protection of diamonds in terms of hardness. This is the
opposite of gold, so it has a higher commercial value.

So, it's actually hard to say which gold and gold are better
because their pricing strategy and price composition are completely different.
Can only talk about personal needs, if you prefer to hedge investment, it is
recommended to buy gold products. If you are more pursuing style, grade, and
decoration, K gold is often better. After all, the vast majority of expensive
jewelry designs, whether in small or international brands, are based on K-gold
inlays or platinum inlays.
