The word "electrum" has its roots in the Greek word ἤλεκτρον (ēlektron), which means amber. Ancient Greeks observed that when amber was rubbed with fur, it could attract lightweight objects like feathers or straw—this was one of the earliest recorded discoveries of static electricity.

​

The phenomenon fascinated early scientists and eventually led to the word "electricity", derived from the same Greek term. Electrum is also a naturally occurring alloy of gold and silver, valued for its conductivity and durability.
