Why is gold so thin?

There are two main reasons why gold is thin:

1. In order to keep the weight and three-dimensional sense of gold, Jin Yong adopted a technology called 3D hard gold craft, which can make the shape of Jin Yong more three-dimensional and larger, but the actual weight is much lighter than the traditional gold ornaments. In addition, the hollowed-out design can also reduce some thickness and weight, further improving the portability of the golden brave.

2. In order to save some gold materials: Because gold is softer than other metals, some gold materials can be saved in the production process, thus making the weight of gold lighter.

Generally speaking, the reason why the Golden Brave is designed very thin is to keep the weight of gold, make the shape more stereoscopic and bigger, and save some gold materials to achieve a lighter effect.
