White gold is created by mixing pure gold with harder metal alloys usually nickel, palladium, and silver to create a durable metal suitable for jewellery. This is achieved by using a lower karat rate than pure gold, with 18 karat gold being 75% gold and 25% other metals. The remaining 25% of the mixture is then plated with rhodium to give it its much sought-after light grey colour.
Platinum is even more durable than gold, being almost 20% more dense. This means that a platinum ring is usually heavier in weight, which some people find to be more comfortable on their fingers.
Both platinum and gold have their advantages depending on the person’s personal preferences, the design of their ring, and their lifestyle/care plan for the ring. For example, if someone is very active and likely to come into contact with other objects daily, then a ring made from white gold might not last as long as a platinum ring due to the natural wear and tear.
However, if someone has very sensitive skin or is worried about an allergic reaction to certain precious metals, then platinum may be a better option. This is because white gold can contain nickel, which some people can be allergic to. In contrast, platinum is pure and hypoallergenic, which means it’s unlikely to cause an allergy or sensitivity in most people.
