Does K gold contain gold? A clear look at the types of K gold

Since gold is a relatively soft precious metal and is not suitable for use in jewelry that requires gemstone inlays, before turning gold into jewelry, it is usually melted with other metals to form an alloy. This alloy is what is called "K gold". The "K" in K gold stands for Karat, which is a unit for measuring the gold content in K gold. The calculation method is to divide the purity of gold into 24 parts. The chemical symbol for gold is "Au", and the gold purity is divided into 1000 parts, that is, Au750, with a gold content of 750 parts per thousand. For example, 18K gold has a gold content of 18/24, containing 75% gold, and the remaining 25% is fused with silver, copper, nickel, palladium, etc. Therefore, if the jewelry is marked with "G18K" or "Au750", it indicates that it is 18K gold. The gold content of K gold can greatly affect its softness, color, brightness and value, and different gold contents of K gold are suitable for making different types of jewelry.
