Platinum is our most popular metal for engagement rings and wedding bands. Platinum's naturally white sheen will never fade or change color and accentuates the sparkle and brilliance of a diamond. Platinum will last forever, making it the ultimate symbol of true, enduring, and everlasting love.
What are the qualities of platinum?
PLATINUM IS PURE
Platinum is a naturally white metal and will not cast any of its own colour into a diamond. It is usually 95% pure and never fades or tarnishes, but keeps its natural white colour for a lifetime. As platinum is so pure, it is naturally hypoallergenic and ideal for those with sensitive skin.
PLATINUM IS ETERNAL
Platinum's unequaled durability and resistance to wear makes it the most secure and protective metal. Platinum does not change shape or wear away so precious stones are held firmly and securely. The density of platinum makes it more durable than other jewelry metals.
PLATINUM IS RARE
Platinum is a rare metal and has been coveted by generations. It is the perfect choice for the woman of today. It is found in very few places around the world and is 30 times more rare than gold. Diamond rings and engagement rings made in platinum are an exclusive statement of individuality.
PLATINUM IS VERSATILE
Platinum is versatile, with remarkable qualities that have led to astonishing applications. In the early 1900's, Louis Cartier was the first jeweler to successfully create platinum jewelry, revealing the magnificent attributes of the metal and using it to enhance the brilliance of diamonds.
How do I know that jewelry is really platinum?
All platinum jewelry is hallmarked to show its purity. The Portfolio of Fine Diamonds collection of engagement rings and diamond rings are hallmarked with the 950 hallmark, the most popular platinum hallmark in the United Kingdom.
How to Maintain Platinum's Metal Luster
It's easy. Simply soak platinum in a mild solution of warm soapy water, and then gently scrub it with a soft-bristled brush.
