Mixed Metal Look 3: Classic Two Tone Jewelry

Classic two tone jewelry is a mix of yellow and white gold. The style came out of necessity on yellow gold engagement rings where it was imperative to prevent the stone from reflecting the color of the gold. This was done by setting the diamond in a white gold head. If the diamond was directly set in yellow gold the reflection would alter the color of the diamond making it less desirable. However, today two tone jewelry is simply a desirable look in an of itself.
