Sapphire Jewelry
Welcome to our Precious Metals Education Section. Precious metals are the foundation of all jewelry. The best-known and most popular precious metals are gold, silver, and platinum. Each of these “ noble metals ” has specific properties.
Jewelers are able to shape precious metals into exquisite forms, flatten them into wafer-thin sheets, and pull them into wires as slender as a thread. They can be melted, poured, cast into molds, carved and engraved. From the ancient past to the present, precious metals have fed our passion for beauty, design, and invention.
