About 22K Gold Purity & Composition

22 Karat gold contains 22 parts pure gold and 2 parts alloyed metals (typically copper and silver), delivering a fineness of 916 parts per thousand. It is the undisputed gold standard for South Asian bridal jewellery in Pakistan, India, Bangladesh, and Sri Lanka. It retains the deep radiant yellow color of pure gold while providing the hardness required for intricate filigree and everyday wear.

Durability & Wearability: Substantially more durable than 24K, resistant to minor bending, yet soft enough to craft breathtaking hand-engraved designs.

Ideal Uses for 22K Gold

Bridal necklace sets, traditional bangles (kadas), wedding chains, and wearable heirloom jewellery.

Gold Buyer Rule of Thumb:

Always check the hallmark stamp 916 on the inner ring band or necklace clasp before concluding your purchase.

22K Gold FAQs

Why is 22K preferred over 24K for wedding jewellery? +

24K pure gold is too soft to hold intricate clasps, hinges, or detailed stone settings. The 8.33% alloy in 22K provides the necessary structural resilience to prevent deformation while keeping 91.67% pure gold value.

What making charges apply to 22K jewellery in the Deira Gold Souk? +

Making charges (wastage and craftsmanship) on 22K in Dubai generally range from 8% to 18% for machine-cut pieces, and up to 25% for handcrafted antique or designer bridal collections.

Can I sell 22K jewellery back to Dubai jewellers? +

Yes. Most reputable jewellers in Dubai will buy back 22K jewellery based on the prevailing scrap/spot gold rate for 916 purity, deducting only the original making charge.
