What is 18k Treasure Gold?
Classical Collection pieces can be made with this special alloy that contains authentic sunken treasure! In 1622, a treasure galleon named the Neustra Señora de Atocha was sunk during a hurricane off Key West, Florida while carrying silver, gold, emeralds, and copper to Spain. After a 16 year search, the ship was finally discovered in 1985. The find, estimated at over $400 million, included nearly 1000 silver bars weighing on average 60lbs each.
The 18K Treasure Gold contains 75% fine gold and 25% silver and copper in a specific ratio. Having obtained both silver and copper from the Atocha, this alloy is made using these metals resulting in 18K gold that is crafted from actual SUNKEN TREASURE! Pieces fashioned from this special alloy may be contemporary, but they are created with real treasure in their DNA. The mark above is hallmarked on pieces made predominantly with 18K Treasure Gold.
