All About Gold - Novell Design Studio

	Gold presents our designers with an array of colors that they can add to their creative palettes. If you want a practical piece of jewelry, something that uses one of the most precious metals, gold is the appropriate choice; any time, anywhere. Whether you prefer a bright, matted, or hammered finish texture, gold is versatile enough to wear with casual clothing or classic business fashions and it has long been a popular adornment for formal evening dress. Gold is the metal that never goes out of style. The color of gold jewelry is determined by alloying other metals to pure 24kt gold. Yellow is the most natural, warm and sensual color. For a more elegant appearance, white gold is created by alloying pure gold with zinc, palladium and silver. Looking to express a burning romantic fire? Combine copper with pure gold to make a pink or rose gold statement. Of course, at Novell Design Studio we create some of our most beautiful gold jewelry by using all three colors together to create a beautiful trinity of shades.

Gold's purity is measured in karats. 24kt gold is 100% pure, but is rarely used in practical jewelry creation given its malleable nature. 18kt gold is 75% pure and 14kt gold has almost 60% gold content. The latter are commonly used in most fine jewelry creations. Each has excellent strength and the malleability to form and hold the exquisite shapes and detail that are created by our studio designers. Gold is rich and it is practical. Gold is art and it is a statement. It says, "I love you," and it reflects back, "I am loved". In a world where some hold back their emotions, and others live in fear of true expression, you can be the pioneer. Celebrate the glory of gold and let its beauty express your style. Gold. The right choice for you.
