Because gold was so valuable throughout history (and since its heaviness and softness made it not little good for much else until recently), for much of that history), it has been primarily used for decoration. Whether it's for jewelry, gold lamé, gold plating, or even making something entirely out of gold, it's a good way to make something pretty.

* Gold is a recurring element in ''Literature/{{Pintosmalto}}'' for no particular reason other than make fancy things even more fancy. The living marzipan statue's hair is gold thread, the automotive coach is gold, the singing bird is gold, and the third bribe to the queen also contains golden objects.
