Rose GoldRose gold???

Hope someone with expertise in gold can give me more details. A million thanks in advance. What is the difference between pink gold, white gold yellow gold No? What is the difference between 14k, 24k, 18k, 9ct, 10ct etc.? how much are they worth today? For example, how much is a 14k gold pendant exquisite pink (about 2 cm long) is really worth (Quote of the currency)? I see very much difference in prices increased for the gold chain on ebay for example? Why not? Are they much cheaper than in retail stores? Gold filled / plated gold / gold metal storage means that cast a layer of gold right? Why are they so cheap? I bought one before, and the gold layer (seller called "double gold-plated 14) were at the end of a day (I sweat easily, but not in abundance)?

Rose gold has a pink HEW for it. White Gold looks like the silver / platinum, and yellow is the color of well-know gold. 24k is more "gold" 14k. A ring would say nickel or another metal gold added. The more carats more $ $ $, and more delicate. Pure gold is soft, thats why they use other metals. If you want money, just go to a local jeweler and they can show you all kinds of things. Some people react to gold, much more than gold reacts to you. Your skin is more acidic than the average person. This just means that you must get your ring plated inside with platinum or other metal to prevent this phenomenon. Sweat has nothing to do with it. Just to mention that, for jewelry when you visit. There are many people who cannot where certain metals.

Honestly, it's just a difference in color. rose gold is one of the colors used in "Black Hills Gold" (with yellow and green), but higher prices because there is also growing in popularity. He was very popular a while ago time and is now a sort of vintage or classic style that blends well with pink pearls, etc. There really is not much difference from the color, but the prices of different colors of gold, like precious stones, fluctuates depending on the popularity and control over that by the jewelry market. Yellow Gold went quite fashionable and is often cheaper because of it.
As far as gold plating, which should be much cheaper because it is simply a spray-on coating of gold, usually over a cheap and flexible metal such as sterling silver.

There is no such thing as naturally pink, white or green gold. Gold itself is one color: yellow. All these other "colors" of gold are produced by mixing pure gold 24 carat yellow with various other metals. The percentage of other metals (copper, silver, zinc, nickel) produces the different shades of gold. Any other than carat 24K gold (pure gold) is called an alloy. For example, 14K gold is an alloy composed of fourteen pieces of pure gold and ten parts other metals.

Rose gold, also known as pink gold or red gold, is a mixture of pure yellow gold, with a high percentage of copper. Rose gold is created by increasing the copper alloys mixed color with gold and lower silver alloys. 14K rose gold contains as much gold as 14K yellow gold but, because of the increased copper, is slightly pink color. pink gold is available in both 14K and 18K.

White gold is created by the increase in silver alloys (zinc, silver, nickel) normally mixed with gold and decreasing the yellow alloys (copper). 14K white gold contains as much gold as 14K yellow gold but is nearly white in color: NOTE - white gold still has a really, really light yellowish hint if it is rhodium-plated, a common practice in the industry. White gold is available in 14K and 18K.

Green gold: Unless you are familiar with the appearance of green gold, the term can be very misleading. The green color, like pink.
