Gold ore is mined from many different locations around the world, but the standards for gold jewelry remain the same. Gold's purity is determined by its karat weight. The term karat refers to a method of measuring, on a scale of 1 to 24, of how much pure gold and how much alloy are in each piece of gold jewelry. The different karats that are most commonly seen used for gold jewelry are 10karat, 22karat, and 24karat gold. Karat's are typically shortened and will appear as 10K, 22K and 24K on your jewelry. These different levels are indicative of the content of pure gold that is contained in the jewelry. The lower the karat, the less pure gold is used and the higher the karat, the higher amount of pure gold was used in creating the piece. In some gold jewelry, the entire piece is of pure gold, but is mixed with silver or copper to achieve different colors of gold such as a pinkish hue, the usual yellow and even green! For those of you that are not schooled in the worth of gold jewelry, it is important to be aware of the FTC (Federal Trade Commission) standards placed on genuine gold content jewelry. It is regulated that the gold must be labeled indicative of its worth. The content, or karat weight, must be noticeably stamped on some portion of the gold jewelry. On rings, you'll typically find this mark inside of the band. Gold jewelry can vary in price according to the designer, the pure gold content, and the location where you choose to purchase your jewelry. The market for gold has risen progressively each year with the demand for it constantly rising. From toothbrushes to shoes, to vehicles and home accessories, gold has long been used as a way of ascertaining one's worth and status. Some people choose to wear gold cuff links or gold jewelry, while others have their homes decorated with golden vases and other ornate ornamentation. However it is ultimately molded, gold is one of the more precious metals found world wide and certainly desirable for its use in jewelry. Gold jewelry is a beautiful addition to any wardrobe for men and women, adults and children alike. Gold jewelry can bring out glowing skin tones and accentuate your clothing choices. When buying gold jewelry, think about how you'll wear the piece. Items you'll wear everyday, such as wedding bands, should be made of the purest gold. Items you'll wear occasionally, such as a brooch or cuff links, can be made of lower quality gold. For pieces that you'll wear forever, always choose the best quality gold jewelry that your budget will allow. Your gold jewelry will last you a lifetime. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Robert Vayner is CEO/Founder of FashionPenny.com, a purveyor of fine http://www.fashionpenny.com/gold-14k.html wholesale gold jewelry. --- END ARTICLE --- Get HTML or TEXT Copy-and-Paste Versions Of This Article at: http://thePhantomWriters.com/free_content/db/v/what-you-should-know.shtml#get_code .....................................
