A customer recently asked for Rhodium wedding rings as to him it was the most expensive metal.
I use Rhodium for electroplating white gold, but never heard or saw a finished jewel made out of Rhodium. But I wouldn’t be me if not thinking about it.
I found out Rhodium is not that expensive than platinum, but I know it sure is white.
The thing is that to me after electroplating Rhodium on pave settings, that it not only add a more white finish, it also by its hardness protects the beads from wearing of.
So I think it is not obvious to use Rhodium to make jewellery but my question is if one of you tried it whit nice result.
