(MENAFN Editorial) Consumer reports show a trend toward white gold as the precious metal of choice for engagement ring buyers in recent months. Tastes in engagement rings come and go, changing rapidly and with other trends in fashion and Hollywood. But seems to be captivating engagement ring buyers at the moment, with many people choosing white gold for their engagement rings.

White gold is actually an alloy of yellow gold and other metals. That is where its brilliant and eye-catching color comes from.

And that color is quite eye catching. Many people except to see gold that is shiny, yellow and brilliant. The white is distinctive because of its paleness and somewhat unusual color.

At the same time, white matches wedding motifs and has a simple, clean look that can go with just about any dress or wedding theme. It is typically 14 karat gold and also contains copper, palladium, nickel and zinc, in addition to a thin plating of rhodium, which is just another type of metal. All of this combines to whiten yellow gold down to its distinctive pale coloration.

Companies like , experts in engagement rings, are using white gold in all sorts of styles and cuts of engagement rings. White gold is most commonly used in four or six pronged settings with a solitaire, which just means there is one centerpiece diamond instead of many diamonds. The combination of white gold and a diamond makes the diamond seem even brighter, as it will naturally reflect the color of the white gold.

White gold can be used with a pave setting as well. This is different from solitaire in that it uses a band with many tiny diamonds set into it. The white gold illuminates all of these smaller diamonds brilliantly to create a truly dazzling engagement ring.

Sometimes white gold is also used with a halo or three stone setting. A halo setting has a halo of smaller diamonds to compliment a large centerpiece diamond. A three stone setting is just a trio of diamonds set into the band of white gold.

No matter what the setting, white gold matches amazingly well with engagement rings, fueling its popularity among consumers. Hayden Cudworth has expert jewelers who are making beautiful white gold engagement rings for Valentine's Day and beyond.
