Is there a big difference between 14K gold engagement rings and 18K gold engagement rings?
A larger number means there’s more pure gold in the ring. Typically, 14K gold engagement rings contain 58% pure gold. On the other hand, 18K gold engagement rings contain 75% pure gold. Most people think 24K and 18K is more desirable because there’s more pure gold but that’s not necessarily the case. 14K gold engagement rings are often stronger and more durable. Many people shy away from 14K gold rings because they are prone to tarnish and cause allergic reactions. However, since 14K gold engagement rings contain less gold, they are cheaper than those made of 24K and 18K. Gold engagement rings are traditional and timeless. Regardless of the karat you choose, your ring will symbolize your special relationship.
