History of Platinum Rings
Since the times of the ancient Egyptians has Platinum been long sought after and viewed as the ultimate precious and rare metal. Platinum's metal characteristics such as strength, weight and white lustre make it an exceptional choice as a wedding ring.

Whilst our platinum wedding ring are make to the highest level of craftmanship and quality we offer our customers with exceptional value when it comes buying their perfect platinum wedding rings.
Platinum vs 18 Ct White Gold?
There are many factors when deciding between platinum ant 18 ct White Gold. Platinum is the stronger and more durable of the two metals but will still over time just like gold. When gold scratches however a tiny bit of gold is lost with the scratch, whilst with platinum the metal is moved when bumped so it will appear like a scratch but it is the metal that has been every so slightly displaced on the ring. Another factor is that platinum will always maintain its white colour while18 ct white gold can fade over time and require rhodium plating to restore that white lustre. Platinum is a heavier metal so if you are wanting a slightly weightier ring than platinum is also a good option.
Whilst both platinum and white gold rings are two exceptional ring choices if price was not a factor platinum would probably be the best option to go for as the level of upkeep over time is less than white gold.
