What kind of gold are there?

Hello everyone

Did you know that there are several types of gold accessories?

At itoaware Osaka store we handle two types of gold: 10 karat gold (K10) and

 18 karat gold (K18).

I think K18 is the kind of gold that you often hear in Japan.

The difference between the two types is the gold content.

42% gold for K10

75% gold for K18

Each has a different content.

By the way, 100% pure gold is called K24 (24 gold).

Furthermore,

since K18 is 75% of K24, it is called 18 gold because it is calculated as 24 x 0.75 = 18.

Also, did you know that gold has other colors besides golden color?

Yellow gold, pink gold, red gold, white gold etc ...

These are shades created by mixing different metals with gold.

With K18, 75% is gold and the remaining 25% is a metal different from gold,

With K10, 42% is gold and the remaining 58% is a different metal than gold.

For example, pink gold and red gold contain a lot of copper.

The color of gold at the itoaware Osaka store is ...

K18 ...... White Gold, Yellow Gold, Pink Gold

K10 ...... Green Gold, Yellow Gold, Pink Gold

The most popular is K10 green gold

The popular widths are 1.5mm and 2.0mm!

Green gold is loved by people of all ages, regardless of gender.

It looks greenish when viewed in natural light.

It's rare that you get to see green gold, so

many people take a closer look.

Besides, many people come for this green gold.

Please look for green gold when you come to the store 💫

In addition, at itoaware Osaka store we do not use the plating process.

As the rings are not plated you can enjoy the original color of the metal itself.

Especially with the Zara Zara pattern and matte finish, the color of the metal can be easily seen.

Also, if you use a combination ring, you can clearly see the difference in color.

You can also experience making rings regardless of the material.

Because reservations are prioritized

If you would like to experience it, please make a reservation (^ O ^)
