Gold Necklaces

Gold necklaces stand for some of the most admired pieces of jewelry in the world. There's just something extraordinary about the rich glitter of real gold. The quality and elegance is incontestable. You will find many different types of necklaces crafted from beautiful gold. In this article you will learn about the different types of gold, the different types of chains and shopping tips that can help you obtain the best necklace for the best price. First, let's learn a bit more about gold.

Gold comes in different karat measurements. Karat should not be confused with carat, which is a measurement of gemstone weight. Karat is the measurement of how much pure gold is contained in a piece of jewelry. The higher the karat, the more pure gold is contained in the jewelry. Karat can range all the way from 12 to 24. 24 karat gold contains the highest concentration of gold you can buy. There are benefits and drawbacks to 24 karat gold. If you want luxury, this is it. However, 24k gold is expensive and may not be as durable as lesser karats that contain sturdy metals.

A good starting gold for most people is 14 karat gold. 14 karat gold is perfect for a young woman who wants to begin collecting gold jewelry, or even a grown woman who wants a sturdy piece of gold that's not too costly. In addition to different karats, gold comes in different colors as well. The most traditional and popular color is yellow gold. Then there's white gold, which looks like silver. Rose gold is another gorgeous color that has a tinge of pink to it. One popular look is the combination of yellow, white and rose gold in one piece of jewelry.

Gold necklaces come in different chain styles as well. Examples include box, link, herringbone, Byzantine, cable, Figaro, omega and serpentine. With so many choices there is a chain for everyone. The most popular styles for everyday wear include box, link and herringbone. Herringbone is often worn on its own, while box and link are perfect chains from which to suspend a pendant. You can even find gold charm necklaces onto which small gold charms are attached. The look is cute, sentimental and quite trendy. Whether you go trendy or classic with your gold necklaces, you will always be in style when you wear gorgeous gold!
