For the Counter
What retailers should know.
A different customer entirely
22K buyers often weigh the piece before they admire it. Serving the South Asian wedding market means quoting by gram and karat with a straight face — this page's math is the math they will do themselves.
Priced like the metal it is
At 91.7% purity there is little alloy to discount — a 22K piece's wholesale cost tracks the gold market more tightly than any other karat we publish.
Mostly plain-gold work
22K is too soft for fine pavé and micro-setting. Expect solid chains, bangles, and traditional forms rather than diamond-set fashion pieces.
These figures are the value of the fine gold in the alloy — not a quote. A finished piece adds stones, labour, and finishing, and your price is set when you open an account and quote real pieces.
The Specifics · 22K
22K gold, answered straight.
What is the wholesale price of 22k gold per gram?
As of August 15, 2026, the gold-content value of 22K is $129.06 USD per gram — the Kitco gold ask of $4377.60/ozt converted at 91.7% purity over the exact troy ounce of 31.1034768 g. This is the value of the metal itself, not a quote for finished jewelry.
How is the 22k per-gram price calculated?
Spot per troy ounce ÷ 31.1034768 g × 0.9170 purity. It is the same conversion Clazoire's quote engine uses, published with the capture date (August 15, 2026) so the number is verifiable — and it is not a quote: finished pieces add stones, labour, and finishing.
Is 22k gold worth stocking for a small retailer?
If you serve the South Asian wedding market, 22K is the market. Its price tracks spot almost one-to-one, so a dated per-gram number like this one is exactly how your customers will check your pricing.
How often do these numbers update?
The published rate refreshes every 24 hours from the Kitco gold ask, and every figure on this page carries its capture date (currently August 15, 2026). If a rate fetch ever fails, we show the last verified rate with its own older date — never an undated number.
