There are many types of metals for your ring to choose from. Do you prefer Yellow Gold, Rose Gold, Platinum or White Gold?
Yellow Gold has been around for centuries and has stayed timeless. 24 karat gold is the purest form but often too soft for daily wear. 14-22 karat gold is the norm to choose from for daily wear. Rose Gold is a yellow gold with a hint of blush mixed in. It seems to have the feeling of romance and a classic feel. Looking to go more modern? Look to White Gold or Platinum metals for your wedding rings. These silver-toned metals are the most popular today. Platinum is more costly and will last longer than White Gold. White Gold which is a yellow gold blended with a silver metal, looks similar to Platinum and at a much more affordable price tag! Which one will you choose?
