What is the best metal to make jewelry?
Gold is one of the best metals for jewelry-making since it is soft and easy to work with. Gold is frequently combined with other metals in jewelry-making such as zinc or copper — it is too soft to utilize in its unadulterated form and a gold alloy is going to be strong and durable.
