Titanium A superior jewelry metal Hungarian metallurgist Martin Heinrich Klaproth first discovered Titanium in 1795. He named it after the Titans, a race of godlike giants in Greek mythology. Today, Titanium forms products from watches to hip-joint replacements and aircraft parts. Titanium is hundreds of times harder than platinum
or gold. As a jewelry metal, it is non-allergenic and superbly biocompatible
with the human body. It does not tarnish, change colour or leave marks
on the skin. It also receives gems and inlays effortlessly, while
enhancing any design with its cool elegance and subtle textures.
