Beautiful Rose Gold Jewellery is a form of gold with increased percentage of copper coloured alloys instead of silver coloured alloys. This is the reason it is also referred to as pink or red gold. The colour of copper, dominates the hue of pink or rose gold. That is the reason why 14k yellow gold is of a lighter shade that the 14k rose gold which has a deeper tinge to it. One can find rose gold in both 14k and 18k and as the amount of copper in the alloy increases the colour becomes deeper and deeper, approaching rosy red.

If you know what is rose gold, perhaps you would have also seen that it is used a lot in decorative jewelry because of its attractive tinge. It is subtle to start with but the colour deepens with age. Copper has more durability compared to gold and hence an alloy of copper and gold would be far more resilient that pure gold alone. This is also the reason why decorative jewelry made of rose gold lasts for a long time. Moreover, the rosy red colour is very aesthetically pleasing.
