54About the brand:
Irregular shape of gold nuggets comes straight from the nature. A nugget is a natural form of gold that was not melted and shaped after. How rare is that? Less then 2% of all gold can be find in a form of nugget. The rest comes as tiny flakes and microscopic dust.
Being lead by quantity of production, modern gold mining operations neglect the rarity of gold nuggets. They are being melted and used to produce jewelry, gold bars and bullion. That's why you can consider your vintage nugget piece as a great find.
