Made Well: Titanium Jewels
Named for the Titans of Greek mythology, titanium is as light as aluminum but stronger than steel. No rarer than the beach sand from which it is extracted, it lacks the heft and intrinsic value of gold or platinum. Used by workers in the aerospace, medical and dentistry fields, the metal flouts every major tenet of luxury. And yet, fine jewelers are besotted with it. Their obsession boils down to two things: Titanium’s lightness allows them to design dramatic pieces whose featherweight qualities belie their impressive scale. And it boasts a beguiling capacity for coloration, turning mauve, turquoise and other fantastic hues depending on the amount of electric charge in the anodization process. BE’s selection of titanium jewels is space-age sophistication at its finest.
