Rose gold
On the label: Rose gold · Alloy
What it is
Gold alloyed with a high share of copper, which gives the pink. 14k rose gold is 58.3 percent gold; the copper makes it slightly harder than yellow 14k and, rarely, a problem for copper-sensitive skin.
Alloys: Mixtures of metals used because pure gold and silver are too soft to wear; the other metals set the color and the hardness, and sometimes the allergy question.

Clasp & Lens describes materials from the public record and does not appraise, grade or test pieces; what a listing states is the supplier's statement. If a piece causes a rash, take it off; a reaction that spreads or blisters is a doctor's question, and sunglasses are no substitute for impact-rated eye protection where that is required.
