Every piece of gold jewelry carries a story — not just in design, but in the purity of the gold used. At DVN Jewelry, selecting the right karat is more than a technical decision; it is a commitment to producing pieces that are durable, beautiful, and meticulously crafted. Different types of jewelry require different strengths, colors, and weight balances, which is why choosing the correct karat is essential in gold manufacturing.
Understanding Gold Purity: What Karat Really Means
Karat (K) refers to the amount of pure gold in the alloy.
Here’s a quick breakdown:
-
24K – 99.9% pure gold, soft, not ideal for most jewelry
-
22K – 91.6% pure gold, perfect for traditional pieces
-
18K – 75% pure gold, ideal for durability + luxury balance
-
14K – 58.5% pure gold, stronger, ideal for daily wear
-
9K – 37.5% pure gold, lightweight, budget-friendly, modern choice
Each karat has its unique purpose — and DVN uses them strategically to match functionality with design.
Why DVN Doesn’t Use One Karat for Everything
Gold in its purest form (24K) is too soft for complex manufacturing. Techniques like CNC, laser welding, stone setting, casting, and polishing require a certain hardness to hold shape and maintain strength.
That’s why DVN selects karat based on:
✔ Design structure
✔ Durability needs
✔ Weight and pricing goals
✔ Customer usage (daily wear vs. occasion)
✔ Manufacturing process compatibility
This ensures each piece is not only beautiful but also strong, wearable, and long-lasting.
