Antique Platinum Jewelry

From the simple shell beads worn by Palaeolithic hunters to the splendor of Renaissance goldwork and the sumptuousness of Art Nouveau enamels, here is a fascinating and informative guide to the development of Western jewelry - concluding with the radical and experimental developments in the last three decades. Offering a concise survey of the entire field, this book analyzes jewelry's changing fashions, explores its social context, and examines how it has been worn by both men and women. It shows how jewelers have responded to new sources of gems, whether emeralds from the New World or diamonds from South Africa, and to the discovery of metals such as platinum and aluminum. Masterworks by unknown craftsmen and pieces designed by individual artists as diverse as Holbein, Pugin and Calder are illustrated alongside the glittering products of the major jewelry houses.

Chainz - Chainz, The Contemporary Jewelry for Men - presents a unique collection of precious metal jewelry designs exclusively for men in silver, gold, titanium, platinum, and semi-precious stones. Chainz also carries custom rare designs and specially selected imported men's jewelry.

White gold - White gold refers to an alloy of gold and other white metals such as silver, palladium, or nickel. The natural color of white gold is light gray, so jewelry made of white gold is typically coated in highly reflective rhodium (sometimes coated in platinum and palladium), adding a more brilliant shine.

Metal clay - Metal clay, a clay-like medium used to make jewelry and small sculpture, consists of very small particles of precious metals (such as silver, gold or platinum) mixed with an organic binder and water. Once the clay is worked, then dried, it is fired in a kiln or with a hand-held torch.

Auction catalog - An auction catalog is a catalog that lists items to be sold at an auction. Auction catalogs for rare and expensive items, such as art, jewelry, postage stamps, and antique furniture, are of interest in and of themselves, for they will frequently include detailed descriptions of the items, their provenance, historical significance, photographs, and so forth.
