Tungsten was named after the two Swedish words “tung,” which means heavy, and “sten,” which means stone. It is an extremely hard and rare metal that is found naturally on Earth only in chemical compounds. In 1783, it was first isolated as a metal and is now used in the creation of spacecraft and as a ballast in race cars such as NASCAR and Formula One due to its strength, temperature resistance, and corrosion resistance. It is the hardest metal on Earth, being ten times harder than 18k Gold, five times harder than Steel, and four times harder than Titanium. Interestingly, Tungsten Jewelry has become a new fashion trend among young professionals in the United States.
