Cocktail

Cocktail rings are extravagant and eye-catching while being based on classic ring designs. If you are looking for an outstanding statement piece, a cocktail ring is the perfect fit. The style gained popularity in the beginning of the 20th century, when women started wearing them to their cocktail parties. The rings were worn to display their wealth along with other extravagant jewellery. Often they are covered in the finest diamonds that makes them the centre of attention at any gathering. Cocktail rings are the perfect outing of extraordinary taste and individuality.

Yellow Gold

This precious metal consists of pure gold mixed with alloys such as copper for a warmer tone and silver and palladium to a paler colour. Its colour is perfect for a classic feeling of luxury!

Yellow gold comes in varying levels of purity, measured in karat (or kt). The most alloys for gold are 18kt (75% pure gold) and 24kt (99.9% pure gold). Other purity levels available include 9kt (37.5%), 14kt (58.3%) and 22kt (91.7%).

While a higher karat count is purer, it also makes the precious metal less durable. That's why jewellers tend to use 18kt, 14kt, or 9kt for jewellery that should last long-term. Like a striking engagement ring or wedding ring.
