Fine Gold - 24 Carat
Fine gold is absolutely pure, unalloyed gold - 24 carat.
In nature fine gold is retrieved as so called nuggets or enclosed within
rock.
The gleam and warm colour of pure gold can solely be recognised with jewellery
made from fine gold.
Our ancestors already used it for religious or royal pieces of jewellery.
This is where the mystics of fine gold are based upon: the legendary precious
metal decorated leaders of all kinds of civilisations and backgrounds, however
the gold was always reserved for special personalities only. Even contemporary
pieces therefore resemble historic jewellery from a past period of time.
Today fine gold is an important part of the BIEGEL collection and very popular
with many clients and connoisseurs. In contrast to i.e. platinum, fine gold
is a very soft metal and therefore difficult to work with. Only through forging
and compression of the material we are able to manufacture long lasting precious
jewellery. Complex shapes and grail optics are not as easy to achieve as
with alloyed gold - one reason for the composition of metals.
The unique glow and the high density of this metal extinguish the gold's
sensual qualities - especially when you get in contact with it.
