MAKING JEWELLERY


Metals play a crucial role in this craft, and their unique properties significantly influence the design and durability of jewelry pieces.

Strength

Strength is a fundamental property of metals that is essential in jewelry making. Jewelry must withstand daily wear and tear, including impacts, bending, and stretching. Metals like gold, silver, and platinum are chosen not only for their aesthetic appeal but also for their strength.

Malleability

Malleability refers to a metal's ability to be shaped or formed without breaking. This property is particularly valuable in jewelry making, where intricate designs and fine details are often required. Malleable metals can be easily hammered, rolled, or pressed into thin sheets or complex shapes. For example, gold is highly malleable

Ductility

Ductility is the ability of a metal to be drawn into thin wires without breaking. This property is crucial for creating chains, clasps, and other components of jewelry.For instance, silver is known for its excellent ductility
