Titanium Vs. Silver & Gold For Unusual & Unique Men's JewelryPosted by detectmetal on June 18th, 2015
Although they cater to smaller segments of the market, they win customers from storekeepers merely dabbling in the connoisseur's area. Experience dominates trade. The more experts define a niche, the more they will even pull away from colleagues in proficiency. Would you rather spend money with salespeople whose involvement in your purchasing affairs only slightly regard you due to volume, or other concerns; or with ones whose intense interest is palpable because they chose to immerse themselves in a particular area, and push on to expert status?? Many seek after experts when they expect to pay for quality, like when you buy each other jewelry. When can jewelry become a niche? Selling rings, or bracelets, necklaces, pendants, maybe? Unless you added uniqueness to one of those, I'm afraid you wouldn't find that unusual present. If you hit upon an unprompted nook, perhaps a web site awaits your visit. Small segments of a few countries uniquely adorned, don large jewelry as with many silver bracelets, or titanium men's bracelets. Titanium's gained great attention in a market where it competes with precious metals that have been around for thousands of years longer. William Gregor of England discovered it in 1791. Its price's comparable to sterling silver, its expense attributed to it because you can't solder it, and the high-tech processing it requires. Its qualities vary: 1. The ratio between strength and density's higher than any other metal, making titanium men's jewelry more comfortable for the rugged. 2. It withstands extreme heat and extreme mechanical force. 3. It possesses extreme tensile strength. 4. It resists corrosion, especially from oxygen. 5. Its elasticity and its inactivity with tissues bring extreme biological-compatibility. Titanium's inertness, coupled with its strength to weight (stronger than steel, but 42% lighter) also makes it most sought after, and is the most used element in more industries than anything in existence, today. Its attractive natural gray surfaces cannot affect the skin--it's hypoallergenic. Its pureness as jewelry exceeds competing precious metals: its 99+% pureness skyrockets over 14kt gold's 58%, while platinum's 90% pure, the silver mostly used--92.5% pure. You can credit titanium for men's growing popularity to its greater scratch resistance, plus its ability to have its surface's color changed through oxidation, exotically and otherwise, adding to its harmony. You can't change most precious metals like that. But, because the color can scratch off, you should purchase colored titanium with a satin finish, or have the color put in grooves to help protect it. Although many prefer gold and platinum, if titanium had been discovered those thousands of years ago, many agree its popularity would fair well with the others. If only each of us could match such a marked growth as to our quality as titanium has grown in its uses since the time of its discovery...
