Yellow Gold Jewelry in Atlanta

Yellow gold is gold in its own color. People have worked it for over 6,000 years.

Nothing is added to make it yellow. Pure gold is simply too soft to wear.

So it is mixed with copper and silver. That mix is what karat measures.

We stock yellow gold jewelry in 10K, 14K, 18K, and 24K.

14K yellow gold is 58.3% gold. It is the US fine-jewelry standard and what most clients buy.

18K yellow gold is 75% gold. The yellow is warmer and richer.

18K is also a little softer. It is the karat we prefer for heirloom commissions.

10K is 41.7% gold. It is the hardest and the palest.

24K is 99.9% gold. It is very soft. It is used for special pieces, and in Indian, Middle Eastern and Asian traditions.

Yellow gold suits almost every stone. That is why it turns up in every format.

A yellow gold chain comes in several cuts. Cable, rope, herringbone and Cuban link are the common ones. Browse chains by width and length.

A yellow gold pendant hangs from that chain. Plain, diamond-set and stone-set all work in warm gold.

A name pendant is a yellow gold piece cut to spell a name. See our named pendants.

Yellow gold cross necklaces are a category of their own. Classic, diamond-set and vintage are the three usual builds.

Yellow gold rings run from thin stackables to signets. For a ring worn every day, our ring metal guide is worth a read.

Warm-toned stones sit best in yellow gold. Rubies, emeralds, citrines and garnets all glow against it.

Cool stones do the opposite. Sapphires and diamonds stand out sharply instead. How to pick a stone walks through that choice.

Getting married? Gold wedding bands match an engagement ring in the same warm tone. Here is how the two rings differ.

Yellow gold pieces here run $200 to $8,000. Weight, karat and stone content set the price.
