The Goro’s Gold Tip Feather 先金向右羽 Evolution

The Goro’s silver jewelry is an interesting and fun object as its colour would evolve upon wearing them. This is especially so for the Goro’s Gold Tip Feather 先金向右羽毛.

This is the how a silver & gold tip Goro’s feather looks freshly minted 



After wearing it, the colours of the silver feather will evolve to what collectors called the Rainbow colours








One could easily get back the silver shine by cleaning it with silver polish but I think it is a nicer colour after the feather has interacted with the body, the air and temperature from the surroundings.

There are collectors who wanted a quick patina by soaking it with soup containing sulphur but the result is not natural as the whole feather will be blackened to an artificial look.
