White Gold

White gold is made by alloying (mixing) gold with nickel or palladium, copper, and zinc. In the U.S., this metal is typically 14K (583 parts pure gold and 417 parts other metals) or 18K (750 parts pure gold and 250 parts other metals). The 18-karat white gold alloy used by Heartland Pendants is made with palladium rather than nickel, in order to maintain the metal’s color and be pliable for gemstone settings. In our workshops, jewelers polish white gold pieces and apply a thin layer of rhodium metal to create a smooth and shiny appearance.

Beautiful, durable, and long-wearing, white gold is a popular choice for all kind of jewelry. Rhodium plating will wear away gradually over time, requiring the ring to be replated occasionally. Also, prongs can be damaged or loosen, so they should be checked periodically and repaired or tightened if needed.
