Unlike traditional gold hues, this rare variation offers bold chromatic contrast and exclusivity in fine jewellery. The flat rectangle cabochon lends itself well to flush settings, modern lockets, minimalist signets, and high-end inlays. While its colour is striking, purple gold’s structure requires care — it is more brittle than other alloys and should be set into protective or framed environments. Surface pitting and minor inclusions are intrinsic to this alloy’s nature, contributing to its raw organic beauty. • METAL SPECIFICATIONS •[Material: 18k Purple Gold][Density: 15.00g/cm³][Melting Range: 800°C – 1065°C][Hardness HV (Vickers): 334][Annealing Temp: 600°C] • USAGE & APPLICATIONS •Best suited to experienced metalsmiths and designers, the flat rectangle cabochon works beautifully in pieces where precision and aesthetic impact are essential. Use it in low-profile rings, recessed pendants, or framed earrings where it is supported structurally. Avoid using purple gold in flexible or load-bearing structures. For ideal presentation and long-term wear, encasing it within a bezel or stabilizing alloy is recommended. Its unique hue will complement modern lines, geometric motifs, and clean visual compositions.• MATCHING SETTINGS •- 925 Sterling Silver- 9ct Yellow Gold- 9ct White Gold- 9ct Rose Gold- 18ct Yellow Gold- 18ct White Gold- 18ct Rose Gold- 950 PlatinumRead our latest guide on purple gold
