Jewelry Rings

platinum rings compared with white gold?

I wanted some additional input regarding the differences between platinum and white gold for rings. 1. I heard platinum is a hole "soft" metal and forms easily (unless you have a polished finish), is it true? 2. Also I have been informed of white gold turns colors and requires more maintenance (I'm learning that may be necessary to replat with rhodium from time to time and / or cleaned baking soda from time to time). what has been your experience on this? 3. platinum is susceptible to household chemicals such as white gold? 4. I also read that platinum has a much heavier and stronger than gold. Is that true?

Here's a great article comparing the platinum white gold. Your questions 1,2 and 4 are answered in this article, http://www.wightmangoldsmiths.co.uk/platcomp.htm. When it comes to your third question, on products household chemicals, both are susceptible. It is not really gold or platinum, which is vulnerable, but are alloyed metals. Here is an article that gives more information on chemicals that damage the gold and platinum and things to avoid and be careful, http://www.wightmangoldsmiths.co.uk/care.htm I hope this has answered your questions and is useful for you.
