1 Answer
When was white gold invented?
White gold was invented during the 19th century when jewelers discovered how to alloy gold with palladium. In 1912, German jewelry makers began using white gold as an inexpensive alternative to palladium. Over the decades that followed, the use of white gold spread, and today, many luxury jewelry makers produce pieces from the material. Find a wide range of white gold jewelry on 1stDibs.
