Gold is the most popular conventional precious metal used in jewelry. It is known for its rich luster, ever increasing value and sheer magnificence. Gold is a soft metal therefore alloys are mixed in gold to increase its hardness. Gold is available in different shades of yellow, pink, green and white.
