This is an heirloom piece that will last forever. Cobalt is a chemical element with the symbol Co and atomic number 27. Here are some interesting facts: It was discovered by Georg Brandt in 1735. Melting point: 1495℃ It is ductile and ferromagnetic It keeps magnetism with only one magnetization. The curie point of cobalt is 1150℃ (Iron: 769℃, Nickel: 358℃). It is a very scarce small metal resource and is known as “industrial monosodium glutamate” and “industrial tooth”. It is one of the important strategic resources. It is primarily used in lithium-ion batteries, and in the manufacture of magnetic, wear-resistant and high-strength alloys.
