What is 9ct gold?

Gold is measured in carats; 24ct is pure gold. 9ct gold contains 375 parts gold per 1,000, alloyed with other metals such as silver and copper. You can recognise it by the 375 stamp. In England, 9ct has long been a standard purity. The colour is slightly paler than 14ct or 18ct, and the metal is hard, so it wears slowly. The Dutch assay office does not hallmark 9ct gold, which is why it carries no Dutch hallmark.

9ct, 14ct or 18ct?

Choose 9ct if you want a sturdy, affordable piece. For a warmer gold colour, have a look at 14ct or 18ct.
