FAQs
What is rose gold?
Rose gold is made by blending pure yellow gold with copper, and sometimes a bit of silver, to create its signature pinkish tone. The mix of metals affects the final shade, which can range from a soft blush to a more vibrant rose. Known for its beauty and durability, rose gold is a stylish alternative to traditional yellow or white gold. At Deakin & Francis, our rose gold signet rings highlight this timeless appeal.
Does rose gold fade over time?
Solid rose gold doesn’t fade or tarnish like some base metals. That said, its colour can deepen slightly over the years as the copper naturally develops a soft patina. This subtle change adds character and warmth, and is a sign of the metal’s authenticity, not wear. With regular care, like gentle cleaning and avoiding harsh chemicals, a rose gold signet ring will keep its shine and charm for years to come.
Can rose gold signet rings be engraved?
