Bracelets, pendants, necklace charms, and other gold charms are available in a variety of colors and weights. You will find white gold, yellow gold and rose. White gold is an alloy of regular yellow gold and another white metal. Rose gold is an alloy of gold and copper. While yellow gold is the most popular choice for gold charms, both white and rose can be quite beautiful.
In terms of the weight of the gold, 9 carat, 14 carat, and 18 carat gold are the most common. Carat refers to the proportion of gold to other metals.
