  • If you can afford it, platinum is the way to go. It’s a pure substance. White gold is a man-made metal. There’s no such thing coming out of the ground as white gold. You take yellow gold and mix it with some white alloys like nickel and that’s what’s called white gold. Over time, the yellowness of the gold will begin to shine through. In about 2 years, you can expect to take your ring to a jeweler to have it re-coated in rhodium. That will make it white again. Of platinum rings, by the way, there’s different levels of purity. 950 platinum means that its 95% pure platinum. There’s ...

      I sometimes read on other blogs that platinum is a soft metal that’s really expensive. Sure, platinum has a premium price right now, but gold is not far behind. And platinum is a pure metal that can be refinished to look like new repeatedly. If platinum was not worth its price, then why would a luxury brand like Rolex create platinum watches? Here’s a platinum Rolex watch with a platinum round style case and a sapphire crystal. There is a Glacier blue dial with diamond hour markers (8 round diamonds and 2 baguette diamonds). This platinum watch is pre-owned (but includes its Rolex box...

    Yesterday I got to preview a platinum jewelry showcase.  What should you know about platinum? It's the most durable metal (even engravings last generations, and it holds stones in place), and it's naturally white (it will always stay that color and therefore requires zero upkeep). It's always a red-carpet favorite, and the range of styles using this metal is endless. And to prove this, today, I got to see a range of platinum pieces -- from 62 jewelers. -- and here are a few of the highlights. Back Next 1 of 12 1 Diamond flowers by James Allen, $4300. ...
