Gold is six times more rare than platinum, and 18 times rarer than silver. Gold is also very nearly impossible to destroy. Unaffected by oxygen or hydrogen sulfide, gold cannot rust, tarnish or decay. Gold is a symbol of wealth💰, luxury 🛥️, power 💥, and majesty 👑.

Our gold plated jewelry is 18K plated. It looks and feels like real gold contains a thick layer of 18K on stainless steel for a longer wear and a luxurious look for less. We chose stainless steel for its clean and hypoallergenic properties. It will not irritate your skin, leaving you feeling and looking fabulous. We believe everyone should be able to look and feel luxurious without the big price tag!
You’re probably wondering why there is an emphasis on Karats? No worries, Karats Jewelry is a family owned 🫶🏼 jewelry store thats been in business for over 20 years, so we know our stuff! ☺️
Let's start by understanding what we mean when we speak about "pure gold". Pure gold is a metal that is 100% gold, unmixed with any other element. Pure gold is also commonly referred to as 24 karat gold (or 24K gold). Pure gold is beautiful and rare ✨. It is also relatively soft and not really suitable for jewelry that will be worn daily.
The "Karat" is the unit used in jewelry to measure how much gold is in a piece relative to the other metals that are present. A higher karat means a higher percentage of gold in the jewelry. So for example 18K Gold contains 75% gold, while 10K gold contains about half that amount.
