Understanding This Piece
About 10K Yellow Gold
10K yellow gold is 41.7% pure gold alloyed with copper, silver, and zinc — the most durable and scratch-resistant gold karat available. The higher alloy content gives 10K a slightly paler yellow than 14K or 18K, but the trade-off is meaningful daily-wear resilience and the most accessible price point in fine gold jewelry. 10K is the practical choice for high-touch pieces — bands worn through years of work, sport, and household activity — where the deepest gold color is less important than longevity.
