About White Gold
White gold is a beautiful alternative to yellow gold. When people think of gold, rich shades of yellow spring to mind. Gold is available in a wide variety of colors and hues, however, giving a range of choices. White gold is available in different grades or karats. Gold is a very soft metal and is mixed with other metals to make it harder. This is also what causes the variation in color. The mix of metals is known as an alloy. Higher karat golds have a greater proportion of pure gold contained in the alloy.
