The application discloses a preparation method of
colored 18K gold, comprising the following steps: S1, preparing 18K gold; S2, performing plastic
processing on the 18K gold prepared in the step S1 at
room temperature to obtain a required shape, and no annealing treatment is performed in the plastic
processing process; S3, performing annealing on the 18K gold which has completed the plastic
processing in the step S2 in an atmospheric
atmosphere, the annealing temperature is 220-370 DEG C, the annealing time is 3-60 minutes, the
colored 18K gold with corresponding colors is obtained by selecting different annealing temperatures and annealing times, and the colors include light yellow, orange,
brick red, brown, purple, blue and blue-black. According to the application, the
colored 18K gold can be produced only by using conventional jewelry processing and production equipment, a series of colors different from conventional Au-Ag-Cu series alloys can be realized, the colored 18K gold has good processing performance, can adapt to conventional K
gold processing and preparation processes, and has lower cost than the Au-Ag-Cu series alloys.
