Questions
Are gold rings always hallmarked?
In the UK, gold items over 1 gram must be hallmarked to be sold as gold. Some antique rings are unmarked because they were exempt at the time or made abroad; the listing says when a ring has been tested instead.
Are gold rings pure gold?
Rarely. Pure 24KT gold is too soft for rings, so it is mixed with other metals: 22KT is 91.6% gold, 18KT is 75% and 9KT is 37.5%.
Are gold rings easily scratched?
Gold is softer than platinum, so it shows fine scratches over time, especially at 18KT and 22KT. A jeweller can polish them out.
What is a gold ring made of?
An alloy of pure gold with silver, copper, zinc or palladium. The mix sets the colour (yellow, rose or white) and the hardness.
