HOW WHITE IS WHITE?

Much of today's white gold jewelry is a yellowish or off-white karat gold alloy that has been rhodium plated to provide a bright-white finish. Unfortunately, when the rhodium plating wears off, it becomes obvious that the gold is not very white at all. Because of this issue, the Manufacturing Jewelers and Suppliers of America (MJSA) and the World Gold Council created the White Gold Task Force. The WGTF's purpose was to create guidelines and a grading system for determining the color of white gold alloys, and to define how white an alloy must be to be classified as a white gold. As a result of this classification system, the levels or grades of whiteness for which rhodium plating is considered necessary, optional, or not needed were developed.
