Do white and rose gold count?

Yes, both count. White gold and rose gold are simply gold alloyed with other metals, white gold with metals like palladium or nickel, rose gold with copper, to change the colour. The gold inside is just as real and just as valuable.

Our XRF assay identifies the exact carat regardless of colour, so a 9ct white gold ring and a 9ct rose gold ring are valued on the same per-carat LBMA basis as yellow gold.

FAQ

Is white gold real gold?

Yes. White gold is gold alloyed with white metals and plated with rhodium for shine. We value it on its actual gold content.

Is rose gold worth the same as yellow gold?

For the same carat and weight, yes. The copper that gives rose gold its colour doesn't change the value of the gold content.

How do you tell the carat?

Our XRF assay measures the gold content precisely whatever the colour, so the valuation is accurate without relying on hallmarks.

Can I send mixed colours together?

Yes. Send white, rose and yellow gold together; we assay and weigh each and price it at the correct percentage of spot.
