Features of Turkish gold
All gold is imported; this precious metal is not mined in Turkey.
Turkish gold is gold + silver, which is why it is so yellow.
The price of the jewelry includes more handmade work, and when you sell you only pay for the cost of gold or diamond and then you will lose a lot of money.
Turkish gold is characterized by the presence of low-grade impurities, and therefore has a lower cost. Some elements of the alloy composition can even cause allergies in humans. No one can guarantee their strength and durability.
