GOLD
Gold is basically yellow soft metal that is defined in Karate.
The definition of pure gold is 24 karat gold.
Jewelry can’t be produced In 24-carat gold.
so the gold is mixed in high heat with additional elements such as alloy, copper, silver, zinc, nickel and palladium, in order to form hard metal in different colors.

The main difference between 14k and 18k is the amount of pure gold in the piece.
