You may love the elegance of white gold and think of it as a premium item, but did you know that white gold was actually created as replacement for another metal when it was in scarce supply?
People who have their heart set on platinum, but end up buying white gold may understand this. White gold was created after World War I, at a time platinum was not plentiful. Getting platinum was a lot tougher than it had been before and jewelers were looking for something that could give customers the look of platinum without the high cost of platinum.
We don't know who came up with the idea of white gold, but we can tell you that the idea was to make an alloy of gold that somehow managed to bleach its normal yellow hue. If you were not already aware, this is not an unusual practice since most gold jewelry is made of an alloy. It may be hard to believe, but as metals go, gold is considered to be rather soft. Combining gold with another metal in an alloy makes it so the gold can shaped and so that shape can remain intact.
This is why it is part of a gold buyer’s job to extract the pure gold from any gold objects you give when you sell gold. Alloys are wonderful for making jewelry, but when it comes to selling gold, you cannot include the other metals in the price for gold.
When you contact a gold buyer with old gold jewelry to sell, they will test your gold jewelry first to see how much of it is pure gold and how much of it is other metals. Then, after they have ascertained this information, they will let you know how much cash for gold you can expect.
