The Soul of Gold: When Purity Meets Eternity
Why Choose Burato 18 carat Gold Jewelry?
A jewel is not just an accessory: it's an emotion, a memory, a symbol of what truly matters. And when it comes to choosing gold, every detail makes a difference.
If you want to express elegance, sophistication, and authentic value, there is only one choice: 18 carat gold. 18 carat gold is not only more precious but also brighter, more durable, and capable of maintaining its beauty over time. Unlike less pure alloys that can lose brilliance or alter, 18 carat gold embodies the perfect harmony between luxury and longevity.
Choose it to express your essence and to gift a timeless emotion.
18 carat gold symbolizes purity and preciousness. But what does 18 carat gold mean and how can we distinguish it from less valuable alloys? 18 carat gold consists of 75% pure gold (gold 750/1000) and 25% of other alloys such as silver, copper, or palladium, in varying proportions depending on the metal's color.
Gold 750/1000 is universally recognized as the noblest metal for crafting high-quality jewelry. Choosing it means investing in a precious material that enhances every design with a timeless glamour touch.
With its high gold content, each piece becomes a symbol of sophistication and authentic luxury.
When we want to purchase gold jewelry, we may encounter other types of metal besides 18 carat gold, such as 14 and 9 carat gold.
But what does 9 carat gold mean? We talk about 14 carat and 9 carat gold to indicate metallic alloys characterized by a lower amount of precious metal compared to 18 carat gold, specifically 58.5% and in the latter case only 37.5%.
Despite the jewelry appearing similar at first glance, the particular composition of 9 and 14 carat gold not only affects the brightness and color density of the gold but also makes the jewelry less valuable due to the lower content of pure gold and less durable over time.
14 and 9 carat gold, while initially appealing from an economic standpoint, cannot compete in terms of prestige and long-term investment. It is also important to note that jewelry made with these less valuable alloys is often sold at a higher price than its actual value.
The lesser amount of pure gold translates into not only the aesthetic appearance but also the specific weight of the jewelry. If we were to create the same necklace in both 18 and 9 carat gold, maintaining the same size and volumes, we would end up with two jewelry pieces of different weights, precisely due to the lower percentage of pure gold in the case of the 9 carat jewelry.
9 carat gold, containing a lower percentage of pure gold, is less stable from a jeweler's perspective. Its lighter structure makes it more vulnerable to breakage and more challenging to repair. Furthermore, the finishes may feature less defined details, often coated with gold plating that tends to deteriorate over time, highlighting the inferior quality of the craftsmanship.
The greater amount of precious metal gives a weight and value that are perceived at first glance, elevating the jewelry to a long-term investment.
