MUMBAI, India, Oct. 9, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Celebrities are known for showcasing their one-of-a-kind engagement rings with massive diamonds or colored gemstones. However, since Jennifer Lawrence debuted her minimalist platinum engagement ring style a few years ago, other major stars including Kristen Stewart, Margaret Qualley, and Christina Hendricks have been opting for engagement rings with petite or no gemstones, and instead focusing on the metal. Platinum Guild International predicts that understated engagement rings set in platinum will continue to increase in popularity because they are elegant, timeless, and fully customizable.
Platinum is a naturally white metal (unlike white gold), and it is also one of the densest metals in jewellery and hence long lasting. It withstands the test of time without getting tarnished and losing its naturally white radiance. Platinum is also the best metal for diamonds as platinum prongs offers the most secure hold on diamonds and other gemstones, and the metal's natural whiteness brings out the brilliance of diamonds.

ABOUT PLATINUM
Platinum is 30 times more rare than gold. Mined from deep within the Earth and transformed into jewellery with a minimum of other ingredients, platinum's lustre, strength and durability are well known. Platinum is widely known for its ability to withstand daily wear without thinning. This noble metal, one of the strongest, natural materials on the planet, is also one of the longest-lasting. Platinum jewellery is almost entirely pure, at 95% purity even when it's set with diamonds making platinum one of the finest metals available on the market today. Platinum is the natural choice for milestone jewellery, such as engagement rings and wedding bands, because it holds significant gemstones better than any other precious metal. Being 40% denser than gold, platinum holds diamonds better than any other precious metal. Platinum is extremely durable. And unlike other white metal, which retains their whiteness only by being plated with rhodium, platinum jewellery does not need to be plated.
