 Today black
gold is revealed its inner features to get trendy and elite. The gold
radically
changed the color to become the part of trendy collections by reputed
jewelers.
It is worthacquiring by the wealthiest persons to turn into the trendy
metal for daily use. It is independent and luxury, unique and classic,
modest and provocative at the same time.
The authentic
black gold is not mined as the ordinary gold but produced in scientific
laboratories instead on the base of ordinary yellow gold by various
technologies. The black color is achieved when cobalt and chrome are oxidized
together at high temperature, or when the yellow gold is covered with black rhodium
or amorphous carbon. Nevertheless, the technology of acquiring black jewelry is
not known to all jewelers in details. And therefore, black gold is still cloaked
in mystery and magic.
And this
could be the reason why black gold is not the frequent component in designer
collections of famous jewelers in spite of the fact that black jewelry was
first exhibited at Вasel-2001.
However, in 2004 Fawaz Gruosi actively demonstrated the precious metal in his
collections creating amazingly gorgeous jewels based on this metal. The other
jewelers prefer introducing black gold in their collections step by step, jewel
by jewel, being concerned about some negative response from public. However,
this unique metal found the way to hearts of the elite for obvious reasons. Whereas
brown gold is the base of the current season, designers are anticipating the
further «darkening» of the precious metal to black color.
Elegance
and delicateness of the black gold is the absolute reasons why it is loved by
the elite society. And in view of these features compared with the classic yellow
gold, this dainty metal has the sufficient ductility and strength to create
incredibly beautiful jewelry from it. As an example, blue, green and violet
gold is too fragile and can serve as insets into some other basic metal. Apart from
unique color, the black precious metal keeps its high strength at the quite
high purity. So, yellow gold .750 is too soft and it easily abrades with usual
wear and tear, and therefore it is preferred for solemn functions and events
that happen rarely. Unlike the yellow gold, the black gold of the same purity
can be used every day causing excitement and adornment from the surrounds with
the elegance of the jewelry.
The dark
color is exclusive as such as well as the white color, and when the delicate
fine work by the reputed jeweler is presented in dark color, it is worth
acquiring. Men tend to accentuate on the black gold for their accessories
opting for this metal for the match of elegance and manhood, and moreover,
black and white is the classic math winning forever. So, in the nearest future
we can expect a greater number of black jewelry for men and dark color watch
bracelets. This metal is likely to replace the yellow gold and even titanium in
Swiss watches.
Most jewelers
caught the fancy of the white gold and platinum mostly for the reason that any diamond
on the ground of white metals shines with brilliance of purity, even with some
yellowish insertions and other defects. Rubies, emeralds, sapphires, topazes play
for showy colors on the lighter background. And therefore the match of two shades
at least are usually employed when the basic part is made from yellow, pink or
red gold, while the white gold served as the background for the play of
precious stones.
The black
gold is considered as the metal to discolor with precious stones since it
darkens the shine of them making it dull and changes the color. Black diamonds
seem not to get dull on the black background. However, the jeweler Fawaz Gruosi
experimented with colors and found out that emeralds and rubies on the dark
background look less glamorous but more ceremonial, while diamonds show every
single facet of play. The person non-expert in jewels and purity can easily
notice the quality of the stone on the ring or necklace. And thus, it is thanks
to black gold that defects and drawbacks are hard to conceal, and advantages
can be only revealed, in regards to crystals minerals and humans, on the whole.
