¿Es igual el precio del oro blanco que el amarillo?
There are many erroneous beliefs that exist about white gold and its price . The most widespread is to think that it is a metal other than traditional yellow gold, when in reality it is the alloy of this with some other white metal..
This alloy is usually made up of a proportion of 75% yellow gold and 25% white metal . In most cases the white metal used is palladium, although it is also common to use silver or nickel to generate a white gold piece. This alloy arose to try to replace the very expensive platinum, resulting in a great success as demonstrated by the amount of white gold jewelry that is manufactured and sold every year, such as engagement rings, earrings, diamonds, bracelets… What’s more, today there are almost as many white gold alliances and rings sold as yellow gold, a field where yellow gold was the absolute king until a few years ago thanks to the increase in the value of white gold.
There is a rule that says that a piece of jewelry cannot be sold as white gold if it is not composed of at least 37.1% yellow gold. The white color and its value will depend on the percentage of yellow gold used in the alloy, as well as the white metal chosen to carry out this alloy .

¿Cómo puedo conocer el precio del oro blanco?
After knowing what white gold is and how it arises, now it is time for us to know its price.
Unfortunately there is no exact quote to know the price of a gram of white gold . The fact that white gold can be formed from various white metals and that the proportions of these with respect to the amount of yellow gold used can vary when forming the alloy, make it impossible to determine a standard price in euros of the white gold for this type of alloy.
The price, as with yellow gold, depends on the carat, with 18k White Gold being the most common.
Despite this, it is possible to approximate its price if we know the metals from which the alloy is made and their proportions . That is, we can deduce that if the price of yellow gold skyrockets, so will that of white gold, since it is mostly composed of yellow gold.
