18K, 21K, 24K: what the number on your gold means

Gold is measured in karats — parts of gold out of 24.

• 24K is pure gold: rich in colour, but soft.
• 21K (87.5%) is the classic Lebanese choice — warm, bright and still durable.
• 18K (75%) is harder, which is why it holds diamonds so well.

On Zahabna every piece shows its karat and weight, and its price follows today's gold rate — so you always see what you are paying for.
