One of the oldest metals to be fashioned into jewelry, yellow gold is a classic that will always be in fashion. It is alloyed (mixed with other metals) to make it harder and more affordable. Typically, this highly popular metal alloy is made up of 50% copper and 50% silver. With 14 karat yellow gold, the jewelry is composed of 58.3% gold (or 14 parts gold to 10 parts metal alloy).
