Types of Gold: A Spectrum of Elegance

Gold’s versatility means endless creative possibilities. At Sara Handmade Jewellery, we work with:

  • Yellow Gold: Classic, warm, and traditional—perfect for engagement rings, wedding bands, and sentimental keepsakes.

  • White Gold: Sleek, contemporary, and reflective—beautiful with diamonds or as a base for modern, dressy pieces.

  • Rose Gold: Romantic and softly-hued—ideal for vintage-inspired jewellery or coloured stone engagement rings.

Whether you seek a single statement ring or a set of stacking bands, we’ll guide you to the gold that best fits your vision and lifestyle.

The Rich History of Gold

Gold’s captivating journey through civilisation spans ancient treasures, royal crowns, and generations of cherished jewellery. As a symbol of beauty, status, and commitment, gold’s rarity, luster, and resilience have secured its place in jewellery boxes around the world. Choosing gold for a bespoke piece or remodel ensures you’re investing in a material cherished by cultures and families throughout history.
