A dazzling history:

For thousands of years gold has been the fascination of many kingdoms- the greeks, Egyptians, Aztecs and romans fought for it. Gold has been inextricably linked with the sun throughout the history often described as sunshine you can touch, gold has been revered in almost every culture as the very essence of the sun.
Why is gold so coveted? Since the beginning of time, the intrinsic beauty, warmth, sensuality and spiritual richness of gold has earned it the pride of place as a jeweler’s favorite metal. Gold has inspired craftsmen to create objects of desire that unite us with our emotions. In the middle ages, alchemists attempted to use their magic to make gold from other metals. They believed that gold was a source of immortality, and so it was used in medicines to fight old age and prolong life.
