Rose gold jewelry is the warmest-toned and most romantic of the three gold colors — a soft blush metal that reads modern and vintage at once. Rose gold gets its color from copper: gold alloyed with a higher proportion of copper turns pink, and the more copper in the mix, the deeper the blush. At 14K it is still 58.5% pure gold, hard enough for pieces worn every day. This collection spans rose gold rings, engagement rings, wedding bands, earrings and necklaces in solid 14K rose gold and 14K rose gold vermeil over genuine 925 sterling silver.
Rose gold engagement rings & bands
Rose gold engagement rings read softer and warmer than a white-metal setting, and they suit vintage-inspired detailing particularly well — milgrain, filigree and floral galleries all take on an Edwardian warmth in blush metal. The tone also flatters pink and peach stones such as morganite and rose quartz, while creating vivid contrast against cool blues and greens. Browse gemstone engagement rings, vintage & antique engagement rings, and rose gold vermeil wedding bands.
Solid rose gold vs rose gold vermeil
Solid 14K rose gold is gold alloy throughout the piece, made to order and suited to heirloom and bridal jewelry — see solid gold rings. Rose gold vermeil is a genuine 925 sterling silver base finished with real 14K rose gold, meeting the US FTC vermeil standard of at least 2.5 microns of at least 10K gold over sterling. Vermeil delivers the same blush color at a far more accessible price; browse it in gold vermeil jewelry and sterling silver & vermeil jewelry.
Rose gold jewelry for every day
Blush metal layers beautifully with itself and with silver, which is why slim rose gold bands and pendants work so well stacked — see stackable rings. For the full ring selection in blush tones see rose gold rings, for men’s pieces see men’s rose gold rings, and for the warm and cool alternatives compare yellow gold and white gold jewelry.
