WHITE OR YELLOW GOLD- AN OVERVIEW TO CHOOSE
THE BETTER!
Both white and yellow gold are very popular when it comes to jewellery, but is one better than the other? This can be decided only when you know the difference. Ultimately, the selection of your jewellery will depend on your personal choice; however, there are some differences between them, knowing which will help you select the better as per your needs and requirements.
So, let’s start with some of the facts about the metals.

FACTS ABOUT WHITE GOLD
It has the same brilliance as the yellow gold, only it has a silvery white colour
This variety of gold doesn’t occur naturally and has to be alloyed with white metal to get the white colour
Complements every skin tone but requires a re-plating as the coated rhodium plating wears off over time

FACTS ABOUT YELLOW GOLD
Are generally not alloyed with nickel and are so not known to cause skin allergies
It never needs to be re-plated as it will retain its colour
The metal can be easily crafted into elaborate designs as it is one of the most malleable metals in the world
Now, let’s move on to some other equally important facts that you must consider before making your decision between white or yellow gold.

DURABILITY: WHITE GOLD VS. YELLOW GOLD
When compared, jewelleries made of white gold if found to be more durable as it is plated with rhodium, which is a pretty durable metal. As a result, these are harder to bend and scratch as compared to those made of yellow gold.
However, you can also find durable gold yellow jewelleries, provided you go low in karat number.

MAINTENANCE
Since yellow gold ornaments are softer, they are more likely to break, bend or scratch. So, they require frequent polishing and repairing more often. But, the white gold ornaments also require some care though it’s easy to maintain them. Their rhodium plating wears off with time depending on how often you wear them. So, you will need to re-plate them.

NICKEL CONTENT
If you’re allergic to nickel, make sure that you ask for nickel free ornaments of white or yellow gold. Generally, white gold ornaments are alloyed with nickel but the rhodium plating keeps it from coming into contact with your skin. However, you must be careful and go for re-plating when the rhodium wears off.
