What are the differences between white gold and platinum?
Price is the major difference, with platinum running approximately one-third more than white gold. Another difference is the malleability or strength. Platinum is more malleable than gold, but will out-last gold because rather than being worn away with wearing, platinum develops a patina as the metal is pushed from one area on the ring to another. Therefore, platinum does not hold a high polish like white gold, but a platinum piece of jewelry will last many, many more years than the same item made of white gold. Our engagement specialists will be happy to assist you with any questions you may have about the best metal choice for the ring(s) you select.
