    Default Where do you buy your rose gold?

    Hi all
    I have been looking for rose gold (wire/sheet), can you recommend reliable suppliers?
    So exited! Moving over to gold finally!

    All suggestions will be well appreciated.

    Isn't the red gold different to rose gold? I thought they have different copper proportions?

    Here it is according to one web site at least: http://www.jewelryinfoplace.com/gold.html#11. In practice the colouring is very subtle, so the redder the better. Dennis.

    there are many suppliers for sheet and wire, but given this is Cookson's (Heimerle and Meule) site and the merger group are specialists in bullion, it seemed reasonable to provide an obvious link to them, after all we wouldn't be here without them.


    Oddly enough they all seem to sell red gold (or did I miss, as is possible, one that says specifically rose gold bullion), so it is a choice of which has the best value for money at the moment. There of course are other contenders for selling sheet and wire.

    Thanks all for your tips! I will probably buy piece of each "rose/red" gold out there and judge by myself. Just wondering how hard may it be to make my own rose gold? Hmmm...
