18K vs 22K Gold
22K gold
22K (916) gold is 91.6% pure. It has the deep, warm colour India loves and is the traditional choice for plain gold jewellery — bangles, chains, necklaces and bridal sets.
18K gold
18K (750) gold is 75% pure, alloyed for hardness. It is the international standard for diamond and gemstone jewellery because it holds stones securely and resists scratches better.
Which should you choose?
Choose 22K for heritage gold pieces and investment-minded purchases. Choose 18K for diamond jewellery and designs worn daily. Our experts will help you match the metal to the moment.
