Platinum

Platinum is the metal of choice.

Platinum is a diamond’s best friend, accentuating the colour, sparkle and brilliance of a diamond, and providing it with its most secure setting.

The reasons why platinum engagement rings are so popular include the metal's rarity, inherent beauty, and long lasting durability.

Platinum is a unique metal that actually hardens as it wears. The more you wear it, the stronger it gets. It’s the same reason that, with daily wear, very little metal is lost and the platinum rings you exchange on your wedding day are truly the same rings generations later. Less maintenance, greater value.

Platinum is unique and individual. If you melted all the platinum jewellery in the world and filled an Olympic-sized swimming pool, the level would reach your ankles. If you melted all the gold, it would fill up three pools.

Platinum comes out of the ground truly white , with no additives. It is one of the only metals that is hypoallergenic, making it ideal for sensitive skin. In addition the natural white colour enhances the colour of diamonds and other gemstones.

To maintain the metals lustre, always remember to keep your jewellery as clean as possible. Platinum can be soaked in a mild solution of soap and warm water and gently scrubbed with a soft bristled brush.
