My 18K Yellow Gold Alloy Recipe

For years, I’ve mixed my own 18 karat yellow gold for the hand fabricated jewelry I make at my bench.

I developed this blend because I found that commercially prepared alloys weren’t giving me what I needed for hand fabrication.

In this free guide, I’m giving you my proprietary 18K yellow gold recipe and showing you how I calculate it for different batch sizes.

Inside, you’ll get:

• My exact 18K yellow gold alloy recipe

• The percentages of fine gold, fine silver, and pure copper I use

• Batch measurements for 10g, 25g, 50g, and 100g

• How I maintain the proper 18K balance

• How I adjust the silver and copper to change the tone of the yellow

• A bench notes page for recording your own batches and results

This is the same alloy I use for my own hand fabricated work.

Download the guide for free and take it to your bench.
