Platinum Wedding Rings

Original post by kewlpuff

Ladies, has anyone bought a platinum wedding ring?

We just got married on Sunday and haven't worn our ring for more than a week but it's already all scratched up! The jeweler who made them said it was pure platinum. I thought platinum was harder to scratch than gold...? Anyone experienced with jewelry able to share some wisdom?

Oooo the wedding was at Jericho Terrace and was beautiful. The only mishap that happened was my forgetting to change out of my earrings between dress changes and the floating candles burning out too early but otherwise everything was really wonderful. Will be posting up reviews after the honeymoon!!!!

Miss you all!!!

Platinum is actually softer than gold so it scratches easier. Also, pay attention to your diamond. Because it is softer, it bends easier which can loosen your prongs. My FBIL works for a jeweler. Sometimes more expensive isn't always better. Sorry, I wish I had a better answer.



this is what I heard from our jeweler. My fh was going to get platinum but the jewelry actually recommended white gold saying that in time my center stone can loosen more easily if set in platinum. With my larger size stone...he talked fh into gold and i am glad he did. My moms original ering was in platinum and her center stone came loose 3 times over the years...she had her WHOLE setting changed to gold because of it...
