I personally do not. I have a silver watch. A silver and black ring. And don’t think I own anything gold. But many people do like the look.
I always preferred silver as well—stainless steel appliances, white gold wedding band etc. But I just visited my brother who has done his kitchen in dark green and brass, and I think I finally see the appeal.
That’s the whole reason gold even has value, for 99% of human history it was worthless but people thought it was pretty so it became expensive.
It’s not just pretty, it’s also useful. Going back a couple centuries, there weren’t many materials that were rust resistant and as malleable as gold. That combined with the aesthetic possibilities, and the fact that’s rare and difficult to obtain, is what made it valuable.

Yea, gold is much easier to do detailed things with then almost every other metal. And it doesn’t react with sulphor like copper and silver do.
You missed the coolest aspect, it doesn’t oxidize! To me that’s ridiculously cool. Also why it’s used for extremely important circuitry and such. Silver/platinum colored stuff looks better though
Really depends on the colour scheme. But dark blue and gold, or black and gold can look dope in my opinion.
I like gold detailing or engraving. Solid gold not so much.
Nope. Silver looks much better in my opinion.
I think copper or unpolished iron look a lot better.
I think its ghastly
Only reason i have a gold ring is because the wife insisted. I like the ring because my wife is awesome, and it reminds me of her.
I know I don’t. I think gold looks incredibly tacky on me, so the only metals I wear are silver, steel, or titanium. I know a few people that adore the color of gold, or like rose gold, but value doesn’t mean anything to a person like me if they despise the way gold looks. There’s just something incredibly timeless about the silvery color metals that gold just doesn’t have I believe.
Yes? I have a slightly more yellow undertone, so silver washes me out. Gold just looks better.
I also enjoy gold accents when used sparingly in interior decoration.
Yes, other people have tastes different from you. Really.
No. Not at all. It looks tacky and people that flaunt it are usually fake-rich. I don’t mind spending money on quality things, but Gold does nothing for me.
It’s been valued for so long it would be hard to separate from aesthetics. Like, it’s pretty much as old as metalworking in general.
Consider how you’d feel about a blue-coloured metal. I think that would be neat, but it doesn’t have the “classy” feel that gold does, and that has to be cultural.
Sometimes if someone is kind of a funky clothes person stuff like gold lamé pants actually can look cute.
I never did really, until a few weeks ago I found a gold bracelet type thing outside and wore it for a while. It’s not 100% my style but now I’m considering getting something else like it. It’s very thin which might help, maybe that makes it look nice but not too flashy.
Depends on the game. I really like the gold revolver in rdr2 story mode. I didn’t expect to but it’s pretty awesome.
