Frequently Asked Questions

What are the benefits of choosing yellow gold jewelry, and why is it considered timeless?

Yellow gold is truly the classic choice in fine jewelry, and there are so many reasons why it remains popular generation after generation! Our yellow gold collection, featuring pieces like the 14K Yellow Gold Diamond Bangles and Diamond Pave Heart Paper Clip Link Necklace, showcases the warm, rich color that gold is naturally known for. Yellow gold is actually the purest form of gold jewelry - it doesn't require plating like white gold, so it maintains its beautiful color indefinitely without any maintenance. It's incredibly versatile and flattering on all skin tones, though it particularly complements warmer undertones beautifully. Yellow gold is also steeped in tradition and heritage - it's what most vintage and antique pieces are made from, making it perfect for customers who love that classic, timeless aesthetic. Plus, yellow gold is often more affordable than white gold or platinum because it doesn't require rhodium plating, making it an excellent value for luxury jewelry.

How do I properly care for my yellow gold jewelry to keep it looking its best?

Yellow gold is wonderfully low-maintenance compared to other precious metals, which is one of its greatest advantages! Unlike white gold, our yellow gold pieces like the Yellow Gold Bezel Set Alternating Diamond Bracelet never need re-plating because the color is natural to the gold itself. For daily care, simply wipe your yellow gold jewelry with a soft, dry cloth after wearing to remove oils and residue. For deeper cleaning, warm soapy water with a soft brush works perfectly - yellow gold can handle gentle scrubbing much better than softer metals. Store your pieces separately in soft pouches or lined compartments to prevent scratching against other jewelry. While yellow gold is durable, remove pieces like our Pave Diamond Bangles before heavy activities, gardening, or swimming in chlorinated pools. With proper care, yellow gold jewelry can last for generations and actually improves with age, developing a beautiful patina.

Can I wear yellow gold jewelry every day?

Yes! Yellow gold is one of the best metals for everyday wear, especially our 14K pieces which are specifically alloyed for durability. From our collection, pieces like the Diamond Huggie Earrings, the simpler diamond bangles like our 14K Yellow Gold Bangle With Burnish Set Diamonds, and our paperclip chain necklaces are perfect for daily wear. The burnish and bezel settings we use in many pieces, such as our Yellow Gold Bezel Set Alternating Diamond Bracelet, actually protect the diamonds better than prong settings, making them ideal for active lifestyles. Our bangle collection is particularly great for everyday wear because the solid construction can handle daily activities while still looking elegant. For customers who want to build a daily jewelry wardrobe, we often recommend starting with simple yellow gold pieces like our huggie earrings or a classic bangle, then adding statement pieces like our Mosaic Style Diamond Bangle for special occasions. The beauty of yellow gold is that it works seamlessly from day to night, office to weekend, making it incredibly versatile for your lifestyle.
