18 Karat Or 24 Karat Gold Wedding Ring: Which Will You Pick? by Mist100: 11:45pm On Sep 07, 2014
Sincerely which will you pick?
It's true that a 24 karat wedding band should have more gold than an 18karat wedding band. But the 24karat will not be a good pick because gold in its purest form is soft at room temperature. This means pure gold on your finger will feel like candle wax and might start melting into your skin(winks) because it cannot take proper form or shape. 24karat gold comprises 100% gold while 18karat comprises 75% gold and 25% other metals. Hence the 18karat gold is ideal for wedding rings because it is rigid, will take shape and won't feel like candle wax nor melt into your skin.

So when that colleague at the office is saying she has pure gold on her finger, you know the right answer to give her.

Who is receiving this "karat"? Will the person survive receiving karate kicks on their wedding day?

Be nice, buy gold in "carats", not "karats"...


My answer; whatever ring you buy, it will still be worn on one finger; besides, no one ever spent half a day admiring their wedding ring!

Is it not saddening that a lot of ladies would rather place importance on the quality on the band than to accept just any? When I read comments of guys on this section claiming that Nigerian ladies are terrible, one would think they are vexed based on past experiences, whereas some of the things they say are indeed true.

Happiness and loyalty should be the topmost priority. Most of those who were proposed to with 365 karat gold or diamond, if there is anything as such, never relinquished the joy of the marriage up to 365 days. Is it not saddening?

It's just quite appalling as it seems, the quality of the metals is now prioritized in place of the 'love, happiness and loyalty' How pathetic of our Nigerian ladies
