What is 21K gold?
21 karat gold is 87.5% pure (875 fineness) and is a regional specialty — you won't see it much outside the Gulf, Egypt, and the Levant. In the UAE, 21K is widely stocked for Arabic-style jewelry, and its slightly harder alloy makes it a good middle ground between the softness of 22K and the durability of 18K.
21K vs 22K vs 18K
22K (916) is softer and richer in color, 21K (875) is slightly harder and more durable, and 18K (750) is the most wear-resistant of the three and commonly used for Western-style fine jewelry with gemstones.
