David provided Solomon with a large amount of gold and silver with which to build the temple. 100,000 talents (3,000 tons) of gold and 1,000,000 talents (30,000 tons) of silver were brought to the construction of the temple.

Now where was it I read that the floor of the temple was made of silver?
Recall reading that Solomon said to the Queen of Sheba that hairy legs were not attractive in a woman...her legs were reflected in the silver floor...like in a mirror.
I'll get back when I find it.
