    It is hard to tell from the images on the website but it looks less
    saturated in color than the purple gold I have seen before. The
    website says they have a proprietary formulation for their purple
    gold

    I would like to see some in person. If it really is a formable alloy
    then they have quite a interesting piece of metallurgy. I assume it 
    is a patented alloy.
