Benefits of Platinum Engagement Rings

Platinum engagement rings are renowned for their exceptional durability and longevity. A platinum ring’s strength ensures it withstands wear and tear, keeping gemstones securely set over time. Its hypoallergenic properties are ideal for sensitive skin, minimising the risk of allergic reactions. 

The natural white lustre of platinum enhances the brilliance of diamonds, making a platinum diamond engagement ring both timeless and elegant. Platinum’s rarity and luxury status also add to its value, retaining its original lustre and worth better than many other metals. For those seeking a lasting and beautiful engagement ring, platinum offers an unparalleled choice. 

Platinum Rings vs. Other Ring Metals

Platinum engagement rings are more durable than gold, resisting scratches and maintaining their shape over time. Gold requires regular polishing to keep its shine, but platinum’s natural white lustre remains consistent with minimal upkeep, making it a superior choice for a lasting platinum diamond engagement ring. 

Unlike platinum, silver tarnishes and needs frequent polishing. Platinum’s superior durability and higher cost reflect its luxury status and long-term value, making it a better investment than silver for coloured engagement rings or any platinum engagement ring. Platinum also stands out among alternative metals like titanium and palladium due to its weight, hypoallergenic properties, and luxury. 

It is heavier and more durable than titanium and palladium, which are lighter and less resilient. Platinum’s elegance and durability make it the ideal choice for those seeking a high-quality, long-lasting unique gemstone engagement ring. Overall, platinum is an exceptional investment due to its durability and ability to withstand daily wear, ensuring lasting beauty and value compared to other metals.

Platinum Engagement Ring Settings & Styles

Platinum's strength and elegance are beautifully showcased in popular engagement ring settings like prong, bezel, and halo. Prong settings securely cradle gemstones, maximising their brilliance, while bezel settings offer a sleek, modern look with added protection. Halo settings, featuring a central stone encircled by smaller diamonds or gemstones, create a dazzling display of amplified sparkle thanks to platinum’s reflective quality. 

Whether you prefer contemporary minimalism or traditional elegance, platinum's versatility makes it the perfect choice for any ring design. Its timeless appeal enhances the beauty of any gemstone, from classic diamonds to vibrant coloured stones. 

If you desire a truly unique ring, the malleability of platinum allows for intricate custom designs. With Lark & Berry's bespoke services, your engagement ring will be a one-of-a-kind masterpiece tailored to your exact specifications.

This exceptional durability, combined with its strength and density, makes platinum an excellent choice for high-end jewellery and engagement rings.

Naturally hypoallergenic, platinum is ideal for those with sensitive skin, minimising the risk of allergic reactions. Its rarity and luxury status elevate its value, making it a preferred material in the finest jewellery and watchmaking. Whether for classic platinum rings or unique platinum engagement rings, its robust properties and timeless appeal ensure it remains a coveted metal for elegant, long-lasting pieces.

What gemstones compliment platinum rings?

Diamonds: Platinum engagement rings beautifully enhance the brilliance and clarity of diamonds. The natural white lustre of platinum perfectly complements diamond cuts like round brilliant, princess, and emerald. Popular settings such as prong, bezel, and halo highlight a diamond’s sparkle, making platinum diamond engagement rings a timeless choice.

Coloured Gemstones: Sapphires, emeralds, and rubies pair exquisitely with platinum rings. Platinum's neutral hue allows these vibrant coloured gemstones to stand out, showcasing their rich colours. The elegance of platinum ensures that these unique gemstone engagement rings remain the focal point.

Alternative Stones: Moissanite and lab-grown diamonds also shine with platinum. Their brilliance and quality are enhanced by platinum’s sophisticated lustre. Platinum’s versatility makes it ideal for a variety of gemstone colours and styles, making it a great choice for unique gemstone engagement rings.

How durable are platinum engagement rings?

Platinum engagement rings are renowned for their exceptional durability, ensuring your symbol of love endures for a lifetime. As one of the most durable precious metals, platinum resists scratching, bending, and wear, maintaining its pristine appearance through years of daily use. 

Its high density ensures gemstones remain securely held, minimising the risk of loosening or loss. While platinum may develop a natural patina over time, a simple polish can easily restore its original lustre. 

Compared to other metals like gold or silver, platinum's exceptional strength and resilience make it an ideal choice for engagement rings, promising lasting beauty and value for generations to come.

Is platinum more expensive than gold?

Platinum engagement rings typically cost more than gold due to platinum's rarity and density. For example, a platinum ring often commands a higher price than 14K or 18K gold. The price difference is attributed to the fact that platinum is denser and rarer, requiring more material to create a ring compared to gold.

The cost of platinum is influenced by its limited availability and higher production costs. Fluctuations in metal markets, such as supply shortages or changes in mining costs, can impact the price of platinum. This can make platinum engagement rings more expensive compared to gold options.

Despite its higher price, a platinum diamond engagement ring offers exceptional value. Platinum's durability and resistance to scratching and tarnishing make it a long-lasting choice. Investing in platinum ensures that your engagement ring will maintain its beauty and integrity for years to come.

How do I care for and clean a platinum ring?

To keep your platinum engagement ring looking its best, clean it regularly using mild soap and warm water. Use a soft brush, like a toothbrush, to gently remove any dirt without scratching the ring. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive materials that could damage the platinum or the gemstones.

Regular professional cleaning and inspection are essential for maintaining the beauty of your platinum ring. Jewellers can thoroughly clean the ring, check for any signs of wear or loose stones, and make necessary adjustments to the settings.

Prevent scratches and damage by storing your platinum ring separately from other jewellery. Handle it with care, ideally placing it in a soft pouch or jewellery box. Platinum develops a natural patina over time, which adds unique character. If you prefer a polished look, a jeweller can restore the ring’s original shine.

Is platinum a good choice for people with sensitive skin?

Platinum is an ideal choice for individuals with sensitive skin. As a pure, hypoallergenic metal, platinum rings minimise the risk of allergic reactions and irritation. Unlike many other metals, such as those used in rose gold engagement rings, platinum does not contain alloys that can trigger skin sensitivity.

Compared to nickel-containing alloys, which are common in many jewellery pieces and can cause skin irritation, platinum stands out as a safer and purer option. Nickel is often present in gold alloys, including some rose gold rings, making platinum a superior choice for those with delicate skin.

The smooth texture of a platinum engagement ring ensures maximum comfort for extended wear. Platinum’s natural resistance to tarnish means it maintains its appearance with minimal upkeep, which is beneficial for sensitive skin. Its durability and refined lustre add to the comfort and luxury of wearing a platinum diamond engagement ring.

How can I ensure I'm buying a genuine platinum ring?

To ensure you're buying a genuine platinum engagement ring, check for certification or hallmarks confirming the metal’s purity. Authentic platinum rings are usually marked with “PLAT” or “950,” indicating 95% pure platinum. This ensures that your platinum diamond engagement ring meets industry standards. Purchasing from reputable jewellers or brands like Lark & Berry is also crucial, as they adhere to strict quality and authenticity standards.

Confirm the authenticity of your platinum ring through a jeweller’s assay or testing services, which verify the metal's composition and purity. Quality assurance includes a detailed description of the platinum's characteristics, ensuring you receive a high-quality product. A trustworthy jeweller will provide this information, ensuring that your platinum engagement ring is both genuine and crafted to the highest standards.
