Why is 22K gold the most popular in Dubai?
▼
22K gold (91.67% pure) strikes the ideal balance between gold content and durability. Pure 24K gold is too soft for detailed jewelry crafting, while 18K (75% pure) has less gold content. 22K is the standard in Dubai's Gold Souk and across the Gulf region — it holds intricate designs well while maintaining high gold value. Most South Asian jewelry (Indian, Pakistani, Arab) is crafted in 22K or 21K.

▼
22K gold is 91.67% pure (916 hallmark) while 21K is 87.5% pure (875 hallmark). 22K is more common in Indian-style and Gulf jewelry. 21K is widely used for Saudi and other Gulf designs. 22K carries a slightly higher price per gram due to higher gold content.
