What is an Alloy Jewelry?
Alloy jewelry is jewelry that combines two or more metal components. They include gold, lead, nickel, aluminum, copper, silver, and platinum. These elements comprise the most common metal alloys for jewelry.
Why Do Jewelers Use Alloys in Jewelry?
Some metals are overly soft in their pure elemental state. Therefore, jewelers use a variety of metals to reinforce the material and increase its durability throughout wear.
A jewelry alloy is any malleable and ductile base metal applied to precious metal to improve its resistance to corrosion and other qualities. Jewelry alloys alter precious metal qualities such as elasticity, flexibility, hardness, and color.
