Choosing the Right Precious Metal for You

A platinum ring is one of the most popular choices for wedding bands today.

There are many different factors to consider before purchasing your wedding jewelry.  Platinum rings have become the most popular choices for the modern couple, but do you know why?  There are several factors that make a platinum ring the most desirable and we will do our best to assist you with this important decision by providing you with the necessary information.

Platinum is renowned as the most precious metal.  It is one of the rarest elements found on the earth.  It features a naturally white color and will not oxidize or decay over time.  Not only is platinum incredibly rare, it is also features properties that make it demanding to work with–meaning that only the most skilled jewelers can work with this material.  Over time, your platinum ring may develop a patina, which can easily be polished and restored to its original shine.

The value of these rings is also reflected in their purity.  Our platinum rings are manufactured with platinum 950, meaning they are 95% platinum and 5% iridium.  A 14kt gold ring contains 58% pure gold and 42% of non-precious alloys.
