15Kt gold (or 15ct) is a vintage gold alloy containing 62.5% pure gold and 37.5% other metals like copper, silver or zinc. It was the legal gold standard in the UK between 1854 and 1931, making it highly prominent in Victorian and Edwardian jewelry. It is famously durable and sought-after by collectors, as its production was officially discontinued in the UK in 1932.
