    The pure gold content in gold is called "gold position", English is karat, so it is called K gold. Generally, pure gold is 24K, that is, the theoretical gold content is 100%. Therefore, 1K means that the amount of gold contains pure gold accounts for 1/24, about 4.16%. There are generally many in my country that use 18K to inlaid jewelry, so that the inlaid jewelry is relatively high. K gold refers to the alloy mixed with gold and other metals. Karat is the measurement unit of K gold. It is divided into 24 copies of pure gold. According to the gold content in jewelry, it is divided into different K gold, so 24K refers to pure gold. For example, 18K gold content is 18/24 = 75.0%, and because 18K gold content is 75.0%, it is also called 750.
