Gold Rings

What karat options are available for gold rings?

The karat options for gold rings include 14k gold, 18k gold, and 18k gold vermeil. We’ve crafted the Camile & Stone NZ gold ring collection using a variety of metals, each with its own unique appearance and characteristics. 

14k gold rings in NZ are crafted from 58.3% real gold and 41.7% alloy, making them a durable option for everyday wear. 18k gold rings in NZ are made from 75% pure gold, making them softer and more delicate. They’re the perfect option for special occasions, as their bright tone highlights every accessory. 

What’s the difference between yellow, white, and rose gold?

The differences among yellow, white, and rose gold rings lie in their metal alloys, which determine their distinct colours, durability, and maintenance requirements. Their differences include:

• Yellow gold rings are made from pure gold mixed with silver, copper, and zinc. This gives it a warm, rich appearance but makes it more prone to scratches due to its surface. They’re a hypoallergenic option, and are also popular within our waterproof collection 
• White gold rings are crafted from gold alloyed with nickel, then plated with rhodium. This gives pieces a modern, silvery-white look, and they are incredibly durable but require re-plating every 3-5 years
• Rose gold rings are an alloy of pure gold and copper, resulting in a romantic pink-toned finish. They’re incredibly durable and the most affordable option. They can cause reactions in anyone with a sensitivity to copper

How do I care for a gold ring to keep it tarnish-free?

Though the women’s gold rings NZ we craft are high-quality and incredibly durable, a few care tips will ensure your pieces maintain their shine. Gently wash your 18k gold rings in warm water with a non-abrasive soap to remove any dirt that may accumulate in more intricate designs. 

Once your pieces are clean and dry, use a high-quality jewellery polishing cloth to restore their original shine. Gently buff their surface, being careful of any stones on a gold engagement ring. 

Are gold rings suitable for sensitive skin?

Most pure gold rings are suitable for sensitive skin because of their hypoallergenic qualities, but choosing the right option is crucial if you are prone to irritation. Vintage gold rings may be crafted using a unique mix of materials, and those with skin sensitivities can struggle to find options that don’t cause irritation. 

When creating a full-body, hypoallergenic jewellery stack, our belly rings are the perfect option to help combat skin sensitivities. These titanium pieces are biomedical and are suitable for all skin types, meaning they won’t cause irritation when worn in a piercing. 

What styles are popular in gold rings?

Some of the most popular gold ring styles include personalised gold rings, men’s gold rings, and gold engagement rings. Customised options are among our most popular, with personalised gold rings NZ that represent your narrative in a unique way. 

One of our most popular custom jewellery options to pair with a unique women’s gold ring is our Original Initial Letter Necklace. With space for up to 10 letters of your choosing, your minimalist piece can hold the initial, word, or name that represents the most to you. 

Is it possible to customise a gold ring with gemstones?

Creating a customised gold ring with gemstones is possible within our collection, and the Camile & Stone NZ ring collection can hold a number of different stones. From diamonds, to emeralds, to sapphires, you can create a personalised gemstone gold ring to suit your style most closely. 

For a vibrant jewellery look full of gemstone pieces, our birthstone bracelets are amongst our most popular options. Align your stack with the stones that coincide with your birth month, and let their symbolism and style shape your day-to-day life.  

Are gold rings durable for everyday wear?

When crafted from high-quality materials, gold rings are durable enough for everyday wear. 14k gold ring is known as the most durable option, whilst 18k gold rings are slightly softer. Both options can be worn daily when cared for properly, providing a strong option for your daily stack. 

The Camile & Stone NZ gold ring collection is one of the most beloved options because of its durability and stunning aesthetics. Add one to your collection, and embrace it in your everyday wardrobe.
