10K gold
10K gold is an alloy made up of 41.7% pure gold and 58.3% other metals, such as silver, copper, or zinc. The "10K" designation indicates that out of 24 parts, 10 are pure gold. This lower gold content makes it more durable and affordable compared to higher karat gold options like 14K gold or 18K gold.
Due to its strength and resistance to scratching, 10K gold is a popular choice for jewelry, especially for items that are worn daily, such as rings and bracelets. It has a slightly paler color than higher karat gold, making it a versatile option for various styles.
