Platinum vs. White Gold
Although they appear similar, platinum must never be mistaken for white gold. Not
only do the two differ in strength but also in color and luster. White gold is produced
when yellow gold is alloyed; whereas platinum is naturally white in color. Therefore,
the sheen of platinum in actuality is whiter than white gold.
Stamps
Compared to gold, platinum is five times rarer and purer when used in jewelry. For
instance, gold must contain 41% of pure gold or it won't be considered pure gold,
whereas to be considered as Platinum, the metal must contain at least 90% of pure
platinum. '950 Plat' or '900 Plat' stamped 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 soap water and softly remove the dirt using a soft
brush.
