The green gold would make lovely vine and leaf accents for rose gold florals. Keep the stronger gold for the structure. It would stand out well in that situation, visual comparison and subtle suggestion.

I used to work in a medical parts manufacturer company. I helped build the first fully automated titanium anodizing line in the US. We worked on the recipes for a year and a half. When I left the company, the chemist I worked with gave me samples of the titanium in every color we perfected. That was nearly 20 years ago and I still have the tube with the blanks with me. I loved my work, but I hated the company. It went out of business six months after I left because it was 2009 and they couldn't run a hot dog stand much less a multi million dollar medical implants factory.

@simondUK
Oh, Edmund... can it be true? That I hold here, in my mortal hand, a nugget of purest Green?
@DangerB0ne
Blue gold is an intermetallic similar to purple gold (AuAl2) but is instead either an intermetallic of gold and indium (AuIn2) or gallium (AuGa2). It's a structural color like purple gold so will show when the material is properly heat treated.

My wife was a modelist in the lost wax process and she made us a model of wedding band that was poured in green 18k gold. I notice people doing double takes when noticing my "green" wedding band. Your presentation was very informative, I am now one of your follower.
@roopot
Percy would be pleased. He was right

Black Hills gold jewelry has been producing a green gold variant since 1870.

Wait this isn’t a blob

Ahhhh electrum. I made a few simple bands and solder for them out of this a few years ago. It really does look greenish next to rose gold. The alloy is super soft though so I found a hammer finish works best on simple rings.
@HiroFlux
the way i have been taught, when alloying with zinc always add it right at the end, give it a quick stir and pour immediately, otherwise the zinc burns off and the alloy balance shifts off
@besskaterinsky3
Unpopular opinion: I think the 16K green gold looks better than the 18K. The 16K looks more green and less yellow to my eyes. That being said, both are beautiful and would make fantastic jewelry 😁 Next purple or blue gold, please 🙏
@MaoMao_Naeva
Can you try to make blue gold 🥺🥺 I always wanted to see how difficult to make it!!! (I'm too excited)😅
@xshayahyawzi3666
The title reminds me of Blackadder "purest green" episode in which percy makes some "green gold" which isnt gold at all😂.
@Hal-p5y
@9:56 I know this is probably genuine technique, but the hammer is hilarious after all the more finicky steps.
@TomsBackyardWorkshop
When using zinc you should melt the other metals first then add the zinc.
@jmcw9632
Ohhhh Edmund, could it be?
@bevishhh
A nugget of purest green.
@YepTriedToTellYou
This brought back memories of my years as a casting jeweler. My favorite color for Electrum (Green gold) is 18K (.751). It’s beautiful. BTW, never use any copper in Electrum. It fades the green. Also, add the zinc last to the mix since it oxidizes quickly.
