the metal
what 22k gold is.
22k is 22 parts gold to 2 parts other metals, or 91.7% gold, and it's stamped 916. it's the traditional karat for gold jewelry in india and across much of the middle east and southeast asia, where jewelry is bought partly as savings.
in india, hallmarked 22k jewelry carries the BIS logo, the purity mark 22K916 and a HUID, a six-digit alphanumeric code that identifies the individual piece.
22k is a deeper yellow than 18k or 14k and noticeably softer. it suits bangles, chains and bridal sets better than rings with small prong-set stones worn every day.
