If you’ve ever wondered whether 18ct or 14ct gold is better for an engagement ring, you’re not alone.
We help clients with this question every single week in the showroom.
18ct gold has a richer colour and a higher gold content. It’s perfect if you want a deeper, more luxurious finish. It’s also slightly heavier, which many people love for that premium feel.
14ct gold has a paler tone and a little more durability. It’s a brilliant option if you’re hard on your hands or want the look of gold without the higher price tag.
In reality, both are excellent choices and both are used in fine jewellery worldwide.
If you’re unsure which suits your lifestyle (or your skin tone), just call in and try a few on. That usually answers the question straight away.
