Why choose gold?

• It is soft and malleable, so can be easily worked by a goldsmith to create intricate designs. It is also very durable; a single ounce of gold can be drawn out into a long wire a mile long and the thickness of a human hair

• It is heavy, considerably heavier than lead for example, so it feels luxurious

• It’s reflective qualities are the secret ingredients of the brightness of gold

• Its nobility is what keeps its brightness from fading. A noble metal is one that is not attacked by oxygen, neither rusting like iron nor corroding like copper. Most acids will not penetrate it.
