- Is 18K white gold better than 14K for a bracelet?
- 18K gold is 75% pure gold, versus about 58% in 14K, so it is denser and richer in color. It is also softer, so fine 18K chains and settings need more careful handling than 14K.
- Will the white gold color last?
- White gold is rhodium plated to get its bright silver tone. The plating wears with friction and chemicals, and most jewelers recommend replating every one to three years depending on wear.
- What should I check about the diamonds?
- Ask for total carat weight, stone count, and clarity and color grades. Small accent diamonds are often SI clarity and G–H color, which look clean to the eye but are not top grade.
- Can I wear it every day?
- It works for daily wear if you avoid knocks, chlorine and harsh cleaners. Take it off for gym sessions, gardening and swimming to protect the settings and plating.
- How do I care for it?
- Clean with warm water, mild soap and a soft brush, then dry with a lint-free cloth. Store it separately so it does not scratch against harder pieces.
