Question

2. Preeti is fond of handicrafts. She always visits the 'haat bazaar' that is set up in her town, where
numerous creative things are available. One day she bought a beautiful pot made of an alloy in
which gold and silver are inlaid. Which type of handicraft is it? Write a short note on it.​

Answer 1

Explanation:

Electrum is a naturally occurring alloy of gold and silver, with trace amounts of copper and other metals. The ancient Greeks called it "gold" or "white gold", as opposed to "refined gold". Its colour ranges from pale to bright yellow, depending on the proportions of gold and silver. It has been produced artificially, and is also known as "green gold".
