Gold Shop in Houston
Karat 22 Jewelers has been a gold shop on Hillcroft Avenue in southwest Houston since 1983, selling 22K and 24K gold to customers who care about purity and want to understand what they are paying for.
Prices that follow the gold rate
Gold prices move daily, and ours move with them. That is why you will see a note at the top of every page telling you prices may vary with the gold rate. We think that is more honest than holding a fixed sticker price and quietly widening the margin when gold drops.
Ask us to weigh any piece and walk you through how it is priced. Most customers do, and we would rather they did.
What purity should you buy?
| Purity | Gold content | Best for |
|---|---|---|
| 24K | 99.9% | Investment pieces, coins, bars, gifting |
| 22K | 91.6% | Traditional jewelry, bridal, everyday gold |
| 18K | 75% | Diamond settings, Western designs |
| 14K | 58.3% | Durable everyday Western jewelry |
Most of our collection is 22K, the traditional standard across South Asia and the Middle East. It is meaningfully more gold than the 14K that dominates American chain stores, and it shows in the colour.
What we sell
Gold chains and necklaces · Bangles and kadas · Bridal and wedding sets · Earrings · Rings · Children's gold · Diamond jewelry · Lab grown diamonds · Luxury watches · Custom design
Why buy from a local gold shop
Buying gold online from a marketplace means trusting a photograph and a purity claim. Buying it on Hillcroft means you can hold it, weigh it, have it sized, and come back to the same counter if something is wrong.
