FUN FACT -
"Georgian white metal" refers to silver which was the only readily available white metal during the Georgian era, used primarily in jewelry as it was considered the best setting for diamonds due to its color-enhancing properties; since white gold and platinum were not yet commonly used in jewelry at that time.
Georgian (Pre-1837).
