Rhodium is a very precious metal that can cost ten times as much as gold or more! Although Rhodium is generally not considered a feasible material to make jewelry from because it is stressed & brittle and very difficult to "work" properly for jewelry making and its price is terribly volatile Rhodium is fabulous as a plating for jewelry because it is glitteringly dazzlingly white and mirror-like. It's like chrome but much whiter and one of the most reflective of metals.
