What are the advantages of old gold over new gold?

The advantages of old gold over new gold are as follows:

1. Old gold is yellow in color, new gold is strong in luster

Once upon a time, gold stores would use some ginger powder to bake the color of processed gold jewelry in order to make it look better. If you compare old gold and new gold together, you will find that old gold has a more yellow color. But in the contemporary aesthetic, the shiny visual effect of new gold is more impressive than the yellow color of old gold. So, after the new gold is processed, it often undergoes the final step of polishing.

2. Old gold is tough, new gold is hard

Ancient goldsmiths often use the earthy method of biting their teeth to identify the authenticity of gold. Because of the low hardness, real gold bite can see the teeth marks, if there is no teeth marks, it means that it is mixed with impurities. After the processing of old gold is completed, one more process, called “tempering”. Tempering is to reduce the hardness of gold and enhance the toughness and ductility. The modern jewelry processing technology is getting higher and higher, not constrained by the toughness at all, but more inclined to improve the hardness of gold, which is good for wearing.

Although in comparison, old gold is more yellow in color and softer in texture, new gold will be lighter in color and harder in texture. Because old gold has been worn for years, plus tossed and preserved for decades or even centuries, the surface has naturally formed a layer of encrustation, so old gold will look a bit more yellow in color. Although old gold is not as bright and lustrous as new gold, nor is it as pure, its true value lies in its craftsmanship and history. After a lot of time to settle and polish, old gold presents a different beauty to the world, and this history gives a value that is incomparable to new gold.
