Yellow Gold Wedding Bands Houston
Yellow gold is a pure and natural material but due to the soft nature of natural gold, alloys are added to provide durability which is necessary to keep shape throughout daily wear.

In gold's purest form it weighs 24 karats and is a deep yellow/nearly orange shade of gold. As alloys are added, the material becomes more durable and less pure so you will see gold being called 18k or 14k or 10k. The lower the number, the less pure gold, the more alloys, the more durable the gold becomes. You'll also notice the lower the karat weight the less orange and more of a soft yellow the gold becomes due to the silver alloys strengthening the material.

The cut of a diamond does not refer to the shape of the diamond but refers to the stone’s finished proportions, symmetry, and polish. The beauty of a diamond is fully realized by its cut, and it is a significant factor in determining a stone’s value. Even if you have a beautiful rough stone that is a perfectly colorless diamond of the highest grade, if it isn’t cut properly, it won’t be considered desirable or exhibit its maximum potential.
The most common of all of the stone shapes. You can't go wrong with the perfectly round stone.
The oval shape is known to make the stone look larger than other stones of the same carat weight while it gives the appearance of a longer slimmer finger.
The Emerald Cut is one of the initial diamond shapes with origins traced back to the 1500's.
