Platinum Guide

Platinum has always been valued for its purity, rarity and strength, making it one of the most precious metals. Its beautiful color and elite looks make it an ideal choice for jewelry lovers.

Platinum vs. White Gold

Although they appear similar, platinum must never be mistaken for white gold. The two differ not only in strength but also in color and luster. White gold is produced when yellow gold is alloyed, whereas platinum is naturally white in color. As a result, the sheen of platinum is in actuality whiter than white gold.

Stamps

Compared to gold, platinum is five times rarer and purer when used in jewelry. For instance, gold must contain at least 41% pure gold or it won't be considered gold, whereas to be considered platinum, the metal must contain at least 90% pure platinum. The '950 Plat' or '900 Plat' stamp on our platinum jewelry is important for our quality guarantee.

Care

Platinum is known not to tarnish easily. It ages beautifully by developing a lustrous patina — a luster that develops on the surface of the platinum due to daily wear and tiny scratches. Platinum jewelry is very easy to care for. Soak your platinum jewelry in a mild solution of soapy water and softly remove the dirt using a soft brush.
