Purchase 14k Gold Jewelry by Karat, Gemstone and Setting

Gold jewelry is a finished ring, pendant or earring built on an alloy whose karat number states how much fine gold it holds, and that number sets colour, weight and wear. Astro Gallery of Gems prices each 14k piece on its own, by the gemstone it carries and the diamond weight around it. Micropave studs and slim halo pendants open the range, oval and pear halo rings sit above them, and multi-carat tourmaline statement pieces top it, so buy on stone and setting rather than on metal.

Karat, Alloy and Colour in 14k Gold

Metal across this collection runs to one karat standard, and the alloy behind it decides colour, hardness and the finish a wearer maintains. Four things govern how a 14k gold piece behaves in wear.

14 karat, 58.3 per cent fineFourteen karat gold carries 14 parts fine gold in 24, marked 14K or 585. The remaining alloy is what lets a slim bail or a pave band hold diamonds without bending under daily wear.
Yellow goldYellow 14k gold takes copper and silver into the alloy for a warm tone that flatters amethyst and pink tourmaline. It needs no plating, so the colour it arrives with is the colour it keeps. Wider mounts sit in gold jewelry.
White goldWhite 14k gold alloys fine gold with palladium or nickel, then takes a rhodium finish for a bright neutral face. That neutral metal is why most diamond halo settings among these rings read white rather than yellow.
What a gold listing statesKarat, metal colour, gemstone species, centre stone carat weight and total diamond weight appear on each listing, alongside photographs of that single piece. Everything Astro Gallery sells is authentic, and the gallery does not sell replicas or casts.

Shop Gold Jewelry by Form

Form decides where a gold piece is worn and what carries the cost, far more than metal weight does. Each form in stock sizes differently.

FormHow it wears and what drives the price
PendantA gemstone centre on a 14k gold bail, supplied with an 18 inch 14 karat gold chain. Heads run roughly 16mm to 23mm. Broader choice sits across pendants and necklaces.
RingA halo or open band mount with the size printed in the description, commonly 6.5 through 7.5. Read that figure before you order, because a micropave mount resists resizing. See the full rings range.
Stud earringA matched pair carrying one gemstone each inside a frame of round-cut diamonds. Total diamond weight moves the price more than centre weight does, because the frame is most of what shows.
Hoop earringAn inside-outside design set with gemstones on both faces, so stone reads from the front and from the side. The heaviest diamond accent counts sit on this form.

Who Buys Gold Jewelry, and Why

For daily wearBuyers who wear one gold piece every day choose 14k over higher karats because the alloy shrugs off knocks that dent 18k and 22k. Ruby and sapphire at Mohs 9 keep pace with it, so start with rings and studs.
For a giftGift buyers work from the stone rather than the metal, matching a birth month or a favourite colour. Green tourmaline, emerald and citrine answer most requests, and a gold piece arrives ready to give.

Four Checks Before You Buy a Gold Piece

Gold jewelry fails in predictable places, and the listing photographs show each one once you know where to look.

Karat stampA 14k gold piece carries a 14K or 585 mark inside the shank or on the bail. Request a photograph of that stamp on any gold piece where the mark falls outside the listing images.
Setting securityMicropave holds small diamonds in tiny beads of raised gold, so look for even bead spacing and no gap beneath a stone. Worn beadwork is the commonest route to a lost diamond accent.
Rhodium conditionWhite gold reads slightly warm at the edges once its rhodium thins. That is a finish matter rather than a fault in the alloy, and a bench jeweller replates it without touching the karat underneath.
Stone condition, not just caratEmerald carries internal fissures as a property of the species and ruby shows silk. Carat weight alone says nothing about how a stone reads, so study the close images before you buy.

How to Read a Gold Jewelry Description

KaratThe gold fraction of the alloy, counted in 24ths. Gold jewelry at 14k runs 58.3 per cent fine gold and takes the mark 14K or 585.
BailThe loop at the top of a gold pendant that a chain passes through. Diamond accents are frequently micropave set along it.
MicropaveSmall diamonds held by minute beads of gold raised from the surface, producing a continuous line of stone with almost no metal showing.
HaloA ring of round-cut diamonds framing the centre gemstone. It lifts apparent size, which is why a two carat halo ring reads larger than its stone alone.
ct and diaTwo figures paired on these gold listings. The first gives the centre gemstone in carats, the second gives total diamond accent weight, written in the form .30dia.
RhodiumThe bright white finish plated over white gold. Wear thins it and a jeweller renews it, and the karat of the gold beneath stays exactly the same.

Fit, Chain Length and Cleaning Gold at Home

Ring size appears in the description of every gold ring here, so read it before you order rather than after. Pendants arrive on an 18 inch 14 karat gold chain, which sits near the collarbone on most adults, and a longer chain from necklaces swaps in without altering the bail. Earring posts are fixed, so weight rather than length decides comfort on a stud.

Cleaning 14k gold takes warm water, a drop of washing-up liquid and a soft brush worked around the setting where skin oil collects. Keep chlorine off the piece, because it attacks the copper and nickel in the alloy rather than the gold itself, and pool exposure leaves stress cracks in a pave band. Skip the ultrasonic tank on any emerald piece, since fissure-filled stone gives up its filler in the bath, and store gold apart from harder stone.

Gold Jewelry Questions Buyers Ask Before Ordering

How much does 14k gold jewelry cost here?
Price tracks centre gemstone weight, total diamond weight and the mount rather than the gold alone. Live prices for everything in stock sit in the table above, and the wider gold jewelry range spans further tiers.
Is 14k gold real gold?
Yes. Fourteen karat gold is 58.3 per cent fine gold alloyed with metals such as copper, silver, palladium or nickel, and it takes the mark 14K or 585. The alloy makes it harder than pure gold, which is why it suits daily wear.
What is the difference between white gold and yellow gold?
Both are 14k gold at identical fineness, and only the alloy differs. Yellow takes copper and silver, white takes palladium or nickel plus a rhodium finish that a jeweller renews once it thins.
Do these gold pendants come with a chain?
Yes. The pendant listings state an 18 inch 14 karat gold chain supplied with the piece. Longer and heavier chains sit in necklaces.
What ring size will I get?
The ring size prints in each listing description, commonly 6.5, 7 or 7.5. Read that figure before you order, and email the gallery if you want a size checked against a ring you already own.
Are the gemstones and diamonds natural?
Astro Gallery states that everything it sells is authentic and that it does not sell replicas or casts. For treatment detail on one specific ruby, emerald or sapphire, email or call the gallery and ask before you buy.
How do I clean a 14k gold ring?
Warm water, a little washing-up liquid and a soft brush around the setting. Keep gold away from chlorine, which attacks the copper and nickel in the alloy, and skip the ultrasonic tank on emerald.
Can I return a gold piece that does not fit?
Website purchases are refunded in full on safe return in original condition, postmarked within 14 days of purchase. Full terms sit on the returns page.
