What is the cost of platinum jewellery as compared with gold?
Platinum is one of the rarest metals on the planet, and is roughly 1.4 times more expensive than gold. Reasons for these are plenty. Not only is it more rare, but its properties are more desirable as platinum in finished jewellery and especially rings does not rub off over time like gold would. Platinum has a different molecular structure that prevents it from wearing and tarnishing. You should know that Rhodium is the most rear and most expensive precious metal on the planet. To put it in perspective, Rhodium is 1.5 more expensive than Platinum, 3 times more expensive than Gold and around 135 times more expensive than silver.
