Rose Gold?

[ImpatientOne]

How well does rose gold hold up for everyday wear? I have issues with white gold needing to be replated often and was curious if rose gold would be the same problem...

RG is not plated so there would be no replating issues.

I've heard of lower carat rg tarnishing (b/c of the higher cu content), but I think you'd be okay with 14/18k

ditto! I think rose gold actually holds up really well for everyday wear.

ditto everyone else - I have rose gold pieces and they hold up fine

Thritto, no replating needed as what you see is what you get, the color is the RG alloy color, not the white of the rhodium on WG.

You can also get white gold that doesn''t need to be plated. Palladium white gold, for instance, is pretty white on its own.
