Here’s why men and women love white gold necklaces

Who wouldn’t be charmed by the elegant yet sensuous allure of white gold—perfect for every skin tone! And here are the top four reasons we have found for our customers insisting on white gold necklaces.

♥ White gold is real gold and the perfect metal for white gemstones and high-value diamonds

♥ White gold is a perfect blend of long-lasting value and durability. For, platinum is expensive and silver, less durable

♥ The lustrous, scintillating shine in sophisticated silvery-white tones, is a sheer pleasure to wear and own

♥ Necklaces crafted in solid white gold are a must-have for your jewellery box because they are a good investment and heirloom pieces

A question we are often asked: Is white gold real gold?

Indeed, it is! White gold is just as precious as yellow or rose gold. It is a mix of pure 24-karat gold with a strong alloy like palladium. The durability of white gold depends on the amount of alloy mixed in pure gold. Plus, a top plating of rhodium strengthens its surface and adds lustre and a silver-white tone to the pale yellowish hue of 14K/18K white gold.

Designer white gold necklace chains: All you need to know

Probably unmatched in its variations and styles for necklaces, the white gold chain necklace is a fabulous option when you want a cool and stylish look. A designer white gold chain can hold its own without the need for pendants. It's a sheer delight for its symmetry, craftsmanship and design aesthetics.

Is white gold suitable for chains?

An 18K white gold chain is not just light and attractive to wear on its own, but it’s strong enough to hold your favourite pendant. If you are looking to wear a heavier pendant, 14K white gold chains are a better and more affordable option. Chains in higher karat (above 18K) are softer and more malleable, but a rhodium plating on white gold chains makes them more resilient and stronger.

Our Necklace Size Guide offers handy tips for the perfect chain length selection.

Types of white gold chains

White gold chains can be solid or hollow, think and chunky or slim and lightweight. Solid white gold chains are more expensive than the hollow versions, but they are stronger and less inclined to be damaged. Hollow chains are affordable, light, and easy to wear, but they are also more likely to get dented and need extra care to last longer.

Link chains like herringbone, omega and snake chains are beautiful and need extra careful handling. Anchor, curb, rolo, Figaro and box chains are very popular and easier to manage.

White gold chain clasps and closures
White gold chains usually close with a round spring clasp or a lobster clasp. The lobster clasp is hands down the preferred fastener for white gold link chains. Its mechanism is solid, ensuring it is sturdy and will not open by itself.
