    The difference between 10K and 14K gold is how much of the metal's content is pure gold versus alloy metal. 14K gold is 58.3% pure gold and 41.7% alloy, while 10K gold is 41.7% pure gold and 58.3% alloy. Due to the increased amount of alloy metal, 10K gold tends to be stronger than 14K. On the other hand, the increased gold content of 14K gives the metal a richer color and a generally higher value. Explore a large collection of gold jewelry on 1stDibs.
  • 1stDibs ExpertNovember 21, 2023
    Whether a wedding band should be 14K or 18K depends on your personal preferences. Because it contains more pure gold, 18-karat gold will usually show off a richer color and be less likely to fade over time. On the other hand, 14-karat gold is less prone to scratching and damage because it has more alloy metals. Explore a large collection of gold wedding bands on 1stDibs.

    No, Lane Furniture is not the same as United Furniture.

On 1stDibs, explore a diverse assortment of Lane Furniture pieces.
  • 1stDibs ExpertOctober 12, 2021
    The difference between 14k and 18k rose gold metal is that the 14k rose gold is less pure than 18k. 14k rose gold has a deeper pink color because of greater amounts of copper, whereas 18k rose gold has 75% gold and appears yellow. 14k rose gold is increasingly popular due to its brighter pink hue and resistance to scratches. On 1stDibs, shop a range of vintage rose gold jewelry.
  • 1stDibs ExpertAugust 26, 2024

Something made of 24-karat gold is 99.9% pure gold, while 18-karat gold items are 75% gold and 25% alloy metals. Generally, 18-karat gold is more durable and scratch-resistant due to the presence of alloy metals. On the other hand, 24-karat gold tends to be more richly colored and expensive.

  • 1stDibs ExpertOctober 5, 2021
    14K or 14-karat gold is produced using 58.3% pure gold with a 41.7% mix of various metals such as zinc, nickel or silver. It has only 14 parts of 24 that are real gold, which makes it more affordable. Find a collection of 14K gold chains, pendants, necklaces and much more on 1stDibs.

    The term 14K gold, or 14-karat gold, refers to a type of gold alloy. The term alloy means a metal made of two or more base metals. In the case of 14-karat gold, 58.5% of the content is pure gold, and the remaining 41.5% is alloy metal. Due to the strength of the metal, many jewelry makers use 14-karat gold in their pieces.

  • 1stDibs ExpertOctober 7, 2024
    The difference between modern furniture and old furniture is in the specificity of the term. Generally, pieces considered modern date from between the end of World War II in 1945 and the end of the 1970s. During this period, more furniture makers mass produced pieces, and designers increasingly used new materials, such as plywood and plastic. Old furniture is not a specific term. People frequently use the term old for anything that subjectively appears aged. Explore a large selection of modern furniture on 1stDibs.
  • 1stDibs ExpertAugust 17, 2021
    An easy way to identify your furniture is to look at the manufacturing label, stamp, or tag which shows the name of the creator. There might also be a signature from the furniture maker instead.
    1stDibs ExpertAugust 24, 2021
    You can easily identify your furniture by looking over them in areas such as the underside or backside. If there are drawers, you can pull them out to inspect all the sides. A maker’s mark is often placed in these areas. You can also look for identification papers, as they give the location of the factory, date of manufacture, name of the maker and the location of the factory. Find a variety of antique and vintage furniture on 1stDibs.

    Luxury furniture is a general term for furniture of exemplary quality. Luxury furniture is seen as a long-term investment. Pieces that earn this descriptor are made with fine materials such as full-grain leather upholstery and solid wood. Designers of luxury furniture carefully select what goes into each piece, and their pieces are created under tight quality controls, often by hand. As a result, luxury furniture is intended to be long-lasting, and its design makes it as functional as it is visually appealing. Buyers should note that luxury pieces are sold at price points that reflect these characteristics. On 1stDibs, explore a wide variety of antique, new and vintage furniture.
