Why Choose A Platinum Wedding Ring?
Platinum is naturally white, strong and hypoallergenic, making it one of the most durable metals for everyday wear. Unlike white gold, it doesn’t need rhodium plating to keep its bright finish, it stays beautifully white forever. It’s also heavier than gold, giving it a lovely, luxurious feel on the hand.
Because of its strength, platinum holds diamonds securely and resists scratching better than most metals, which makes it ideal for a lifetime piece you’ll wear every day.
Ladies’ Platinum Wedding Ring Styles
There’s no single “right” style when it comes to platinum wedding rings, it’s all about what feels right for you. Some people love the sleek look of classic polished bands, while others prefer brushed or matte finishes for a soft, modern feel that hides everyday wear. If you’d like a touch of sparkle, diamond-set platinum rings can be designed with pavé, channel or flush-set diamonds for a subtle yet elegant look. And if your engagement ring has an unusual shape, shaped or contoured rings can be made to sit neatly beside it for a seamless match. Every design can be made in your preferred width and profile, from delicate and fine to bold and sculptural.
Platinum Vs White Gold: What’s The Difference?
Platinum is a naturally white metal that keeps its bright colour for life, while white gold is made by blending yellow gold with other metals and plating it with rhodium for a bright white finish. Over time, white gold will need re-plating to stay as white as platinum, while platinum remains naturally bright and more hard-wearing.
If your wedding ring will sit next to your engagement ring, it’s important that both are made from the same metal. Platinum is harder than white gold, so when worn together, it can gradually wear away the softer gold. If your engagement ring is platinum, I’d recommend choosing a platinum wedding ring so they age evenly.
If your engagement ring is white gold, I’ll happily make your wedding ring in matching 18ct white gold so both metals wear consistently and keep their beautiful finish side by side. It’s all about finding the right balance for your rings and how you’ll wear them every day.
