So what is the difference?
For all reasons, Platinum is a better value than Gold.
Your Engagement Ring or Wedding Band is your most precious possession and needs to be crafted from a metal that exemplifies your love. Platinum is a wonderful choice for wedding rings. Its long lasting durability, heavier feel, and stylish presence make it the perfect ring for active lifestyles and lasting love.
Because Platinum and Gold are two different metals, they have different properties. Platinum, for example, is less brittle than White Gold. Where White Gold tends to break or snap, Platinum is more malleable and will merely bend. This minor difference is extremely valuable when prongs on a mounting are taken into consideration. With Platinum, there is little chance that a prong will break off and the stone will be lost. Usually the mounting on a Platinum Ring will only bend, keeping the stone secure.
White Gold is originally Yellow Gold and alloys are added to the Gold to give it a whiter color. In order to give White Gold the "Platinum" look, the ring is then rhodium plated. Over time, this rhodium plating wears down, revealing an unattractive yellowish-white appearance, which then needs to be polished and re-plated with rhodium. Additionally, because we cannot polish or reapply rhodium to the points where the stone makes contact with the prongs, a discolored setting may cause a diamond to appear up to two color grades lower. Platinum on the other hand never loses its color. In order to keep a Platinum Ring looking good, it merely needs to be polished.
Even when it comes to style, Platinum takes the cake. Yellow gold is simply not held with as high esteem as Platinum.
So why doesn't everyone buy Platinum instead of White Gold? Many people are concerned about the price difference between Platinum and White Gold. It is assumed that Platinum is much more expensive than gold. However, because of the current high prices in gold, the difference is smaller than ever, making Platinum a much better value than normal. Your Engagement Ring and Wedding Band are investments, and Platinum is an investment you can't go wrong with.

what questions should i ask the jewler about and diamond engagement ring? is this ring I found good?
i found a ring i really like for my GF. its round cut with a platinum setting .. diamonds that run along the side leading to the main rock on the top. it is .52 and total .82 and is on sale for 2400. is that a good price? this guy is a local dealer and i dont know him. any advise on what to get or how to get it or what questions to ask etc would be appreciated. my girl likes princess cut but the round has more brilliance and retains more value i believe.
Research the Color, Cut, Clarity, and Carat weight of diamonds and then compare the information you gather to the ring you have in mind.
It all depends on the 4 C's.
