Noble metals

Noble metals are metals that are resistant to corrosion, oxidation, and chemical reactions - they ensure durability and eternal luster for jewelry and are used in the worlds of medicine, science, and technology. Thanks to their nobility, these metals preserve the beauty of jewelry and allow us to admire pieces created thousands of years ago.

Gold leads the way, and for thousands of years, it has been a symbol of status, wealth, and honor. Pure 24-karat gold is soft, which is why 18-karat, 14-karat, and other alloys are used for jewelry.

Silver - Sterling Silver, possesses high conductivity and displays luster and a brilliant whiteness in antique jewelry. Until the beginning of the 20th century, it was customary to set diamonds in silver due to these properties. At the end of the 19th century, another noble metal joined: Platinum, a naturally white and durable metal that allowed for more secure settings for diamonds and precious gemstones. During the Art Deco period, platinum was popular, and many of the luxury jewelry pieces from this era were designed in this metal. For many years, it was more expensive than gold.
