Alloys!

Regardless of your requirements for your wedding rings and jewelry pieces, Oberturm offers a diverse selection of high-quality materials. We are aware that pure gold is often too soft to create durable jewelry. Therefore, we use alloys made from carefully selected metals, which are fused together in different mixing ratios. This way, we guarantee not only an aesthetically pleasing design but also long-lasting durability.

Yellow gold

Yellow gold radiates timeless elegance. Oberturm offers yellow gold in various purities (375/-, 585/-, 750/-).

Apricotgold

Apricot gold combines the elegance of yellow gold with a soft, warm hue. This alloy is available in 375/-, 585/-, and 750.

Hazelnut gold

Hazelnut gold impresses with its reddish-brown hue, which is created from 58.5% or 75% fine gold, copper, silver, and palladium.

The History of Gold!

The fascination with the beauty and symbolism of gold goes back thousands of years. Jewelry made of gold has been crafted since 4000 BC. The term "gold" comes from Indo-European, where "ghel" means yellow and shiny. Inside a gold ring, you will find the stamped mark AU, the chemical element symbol for gold, derived from the Latin "Aurum." Originally, gold has a warm, yellow color, which can be altered by mixing in silver, copper, or palladium.


Gold is found in primary and secondary deposits. In primary deposits, gold deposits are found in the ground, while secondary deposits contain gold that has been eroded from the rock and deposited as fine gold dust or small grains in streams and rivers. The most important mining areas today are in South Africa, Russia, North and South America, as well as in Australia.

Caramel Gold

Caramel gold offers a sweet, golden hue that combines elegance and style. This alloy is ideal for couples who want a warm, inviting look.

Gray gold

Gray gold retains its characteristic gray color when it is not rhodium-plated. This alloy offers a modern and elegant alternative to traditional gold tones.

Rose gold

Rose gold adds a delicate, romantic touch to your jewelry pieces. The alloy is created by a high copper content, which gives it a warm, rosy hue.

Bright alloys for engagement and wedding rings!

Light and white alloys are characterized by their cool elegance and represent a modern alternative to classic yellow gold. They are especially suitable for engagement rings and wedding bands. Among the most precious options are platinum and palladium, known for their high hardness and durability. Signs of wear from daily use are barely visible on these materials and can be easily repaired without any loss of material. Platinum remains the undisputed top class among white alloys, with unmatched brilliance and weight.


For a tighter budget, stainless steel, palladium-silver, or silver are excellent alternatives to fulfill the desire for light-colored rings.


Whether you choose silver, white gold, palladium, or platinum – with engagement and wedding rings in white alloys, you show your courage for a modern look.

White gold exudes timeless elegance and is refined with manganese, silver, palladium, or platinum. This alloy is known for its exclusivity and radiant shine.
