What is a Platinum?

Platinum is a popular choice for jewellery due to its strength, durability, and attractive white colour. It is often used to create fine and intricate designs, as it is able to hold delicate details well. Platinum jewellery is available in a range of styles and designs, including rings, earrings, bracelets, and necklaces. It is often used to create elegant and sophisticated pieces, but it can also be used to make more casual and modern jewellery.

Platinum jewellery is typically marked with a hallmark indicating its purity or fineness. The fineness of platinum refers to the percentage of pure platinum in the piece. For example, a piece of jewellery marked "900 Plat" contains 90% pure platinum, while a piece marked "950 Plat" is made of 95% pure platinum.

It is often used in the production of high-quality jewellery and is a popular choice for those looking for a timeless and elegant piece. Platinum is resistant to tarnish and corrosion and is highly valued for its rarity and durability. It is a versatile metal that can be moulded and shaped into a variety of forms, making it a popular choice for custom jewellery design.
