If silver and gold and all other materials were cheap, how might you change your kitchen equipment? I think silver might be tops as a fry pan or Dutch oven or whatever. Gold might make a cool pan for preparing something in front of the customer. What might you consider? I am asking this from a technical viewpoint, not caring so much about being flashy. I've got some physics education and I know these metals have really cool properties. Maybe this question is irrelevant, but I asked it anyway.

And then also, I am curious to know if any of you pros actually use silver pans.

Cool properties:

thermal conductivity
electrical conductivity (induction as an example of a way to use this property)
basically inert to almost all chemical reactions

Surely it would be impracticle because they are such soft metals. They wouldn't stand up to much abuse. However, Sterling goblets and tumblers to drink from and sterling flatware does make things taste better.

Now, a diamond encrusted rolling pin would be nice, just to look at.
