Matte black metal finishing; White gold + rhodium
Hi,
I would like to create a matte black ring (jewelry). Having talked to several jewelers who all suggested titanium, which I consider to be gray. I finally spoke to one of Sweden's finest jewelers who told me there is a process using white gold with rhodium, heating the ring thereby creating the effect of matte black finish. I wonder
1. Will the finish really be matte black?
2. Would you be able to provide me with a photo or indicate a source for pictures of results of mentioned process?
3. Are there alternative processes?
Thank you very much for your support.
Best regards,
David Brotzen
