Akshaya Tritiya is synonymous with gold in all forms, be it coins or jewellery, as it is one of those days when we take out our finest outfits to wear, decorate our homes and worship Lord Vishnu and Goddess Lakshmi. Moreover, it is also the day when jewellery retailers come out with more than just new designs. They give us the best festival offer we can enjoy. What’s more, we wait for the month of Vaishaka because we know we can buy gold jewellery at a discount, see the latest designs, and add some of them to our collection.
As Akshaya Tritiya approaches each year, we start searching for the perfect piece of jewellery to buy for ourselves or our loved ones. We believe that some form of gold must make an appearance in our lives, however big or small. We can either go for 18kt gold or lightweight 14kt jewellery. Creative and unique designs are available in both, and here, we’ll compare CaratLane’s 14kt and 18kt gold collections to help you choose the perfect Akshaya Tritiya jewellery.
CaratLane’s 14kt Gold Jewellery Collection
CaratLane’s 14kt gold collection is perfect for those who want to buy gold jewellery without spending a lot of money. The gold in 14kt jewellery contains 58.3% pure gold, which is mixed with other metals like silver, copper, and nickel to make it more durable. The lower gold content makes 14kt jewellery less expensive than 18kt jewellery. Plus it is lighter to wear.
The 14kt gold collection at CaratLane includes a wide range of designs, from simple and elegant to bold and intricate. Some popular pieces include the Stellar Luminous Adjustable Gold Bracelet and Fashionable Evil Eye Gold Pendant.
Even the more elaborately designed Ashley Radiant Diamond Nose Pin, the Amira Leaf Diamond Drop Earrings, or the Glistening Classic Diamond Band will sit lightly on you while adding beauty and grace to your appearance.
CaratLane’s 18kt Gold Jewellery Collection
CaratLane’s 18kt gold collection is ideal if you want to invest in high-quality, pure gold jewellery. 18kt jewellery contains 75% pure gold, which is mixed with other metals like copper, silver, and palladium to make it more durable. The higher gold content makes 18kt jewellery slightly more expensive than 14kt jewellery.
The 18kt gold collection at CaratLane includes a range of designs in yellow, rose, and white gold. You have the Wave Diamond Band in rose gold, the Isabella Halo Diamond Ring in white gold, and the Duo Diamond Heart Pendant in yellow gold as perfect examples of 18kt gold jewellery.
There is also the two and three-toned 18 KT jewellery if you like some variety. You can try the Key To My Heart Diamond Pendant in rose and white gold and the Glorious Orb Diamond Bangle in yellow and white gold. The Zinnia Bloom Diamond Stud Earrings in white and rose gold are stunning in style and sophistication with the two-toned effect.
Which one to choose – 14 KT or 18 KT gold jewellery?
Choosing between 14 and 18 KT jewellery is not always easy, especially when thousands of amazing designs surround you. You may need to consider other factors, like budget, comfort, etc., to make your choice.
If you are looking for an affordable option, then the 14kt gold collection is perfect for you. And it is lightweight jewellery of the same quality and craftsmanship. Furthermore, 14kt jewellery is ideal for everyday wear, whether at home or to work outside.
Earrings and rings in 14kt
Wear the Stellar Dainty Diamond Hoop Earrings, and you will experience utmost comfort because it weighs less than 1.4 grams while looking dainty even as it has 14 diamonds. The Classic Cluster Diamond Ring also is light enough not to weigh your finger down.
However, if you can’t resist going for the 18kt gold, you have just as many designs to explore. Remember that both 14kt and 18kt gold jewellery are durable and can last a long time. But 18kt gold is softer than 14kt gold and can scratch more easily, requiring additional care.
Ear cuffs, rings, and pendants in 18kt
The Velora Diamond Ring is spectacular in its simplicity. The twin bands supporting the diamond cluster make the design more unique. The Neely Inter-Twisted Diamond Pendant is another fine example of 18kt gold and diamond jewellery. If you like ear cuffs, you have the Ferna Shine Diamond Ear Cuffs in 18kt yellow gold to add a glam element to your style.
As you can see, CaratLane’s 14kt and 18kt gold collections offer a wide variety of designs for Akshaya Tritiya. You will find that both options hold equal appeal and will meet your style preference and budget. You can fulfil one of the most practised Akshaya Tritiya traditions by buying 14kt or 18kt gold jewellery from one place.
Now is the perfect time to browse the different collections at CaratLane so that you can wear them on Akshaya Tritiya this year. All you have to do is take the virtual tour, fix an appointment to try the jewellery of choice at home, see how you look and feel, and add to your gold jewellery collection.
