Here are ten unique luxury rings from Modern Gray for that next treat-yourself moment or that special gift to win you infinite brownie points from your loved one! But before that, let me introduce the brand first as the brand may be new to you.

Modern Gray was founded in 2019, it’s a combination of Grace + Amy, both friends, creative collaborators, colleagues, and mompreneurs who collaborated to create a jewelry line featuring 14k and 18k solid gold diamond-shaped nuggets that are “Classically Modern and Simply Bold” that are certain to be passed down from one generation to the next.

What I really like the most about this brand, is that each piece in their collection is made to order, no one piece is identical. You will be wearing a unique piece of jewelry that is not massed produced but crafted by true local artisans. Their rings collection is my favorite, it is without a doubt really worth an attempt! The designs are really special, classic and gorgeous, featuring 14K/18k yellow & white gold.

White gold and yellow gold are always a fantastic choice because they are timeless, high quality, and always in style, they are both very popular choices for rings. But You will probably have this question on your mind how they are made?

As no doubt, you are aware that gold is one of the most precious and rare metals on Earth. This lustrous metal is the preferred choice for fine jewelry, due to its blend of beauty and durability. Gold is a natural element that is found in quartz veins (in rock) and alluvial deposits (transported by water and deposited in river beds). When gold is extracted, it needs to be refined to remove impurities such as traces of other metals. The end result is pure gold – which is 24-carat gold. Now, let’s see how white and yellow gold rings are made!

• White gold is actually made of yellow gold mixed with metals such as manganese and palladium to make the alloy white. Jewelry made of white gold is usually coated with a layer of rhodium so as to make the piece look even whiter. If you like the look of platinum but want to spend a little less, white gold is a fantastic choice. When comparing white gold vs. yellow gold, white gold is stronger and more durable, meaning it is less susceptible to scratching and denting. Like all precious metals used for rings, white gold requires some maintenance. Cleaning and polishing are a must, and this metal needs to be dipped every few years in order to retain luster and color.

• Yellow gold is also mixed with other metals, but the main reason for doing so is to make the alloy harder and more durable, not to change its color. Yellow gold looks nice on anyone but is particularly beautiful when contrasted with olive and darker skin tones. It looks less impressive on pale to rose skin tones, meaning white gold might be a better choice for someone with fair skin.

I personally prefer yellow gold because it's very classic and timeless. It has made a major come back in the past couple of years! The resurgence in yellow gold's popularity could be due to the bold, distinct look of yellow gold, or it could be the trendsetters in the fashion world using yellow gold more often in designer rings. Whatever the case, yellow gold is worn often and it looks fantastic. If you are unsure which gold color is right for you, consider the type of jewelry you usually wear. Discuss your preference with your family, friends, or your partner. You can also contact and speak to Modern Gray jewelry experts, who will surely help you discover your perfect piece.
