Why is Platinum Used for Jewellery?
Platinum is a fantastic choice for jewellery making and is used by jewellers everywhere for a range of designs. Platinum is often favoured over other metals for its durability and resistance to every day damage, making it ideal to pair with precious gemstones and to use in wedding bands and engagement rings.
Platinum metal is also favoured as a result of its purity. All of our platinum wire is 95% pure platinum making it purer than 9, 14 and 18ct gold and it is this purity that gives the metal a white sheen that does not require rhodium plating. The purity, shine and durability of platinum wire is why it is perfect for creating long lasting jewellery pieces. With a huge range of shapes, dimensions and the ability to easily order the exact amount of wire you need, our selection of platinum wire is a popular choice amongst jewellery makers.
Can Platinum Tarnish?
No, unlike other metals, platinum does not tarnish.
Classed as a noble metal, platinum is unreactive which means that it will not tarnish, or rust over time. For those familiar with silver jewellery, the effects of chemicals or even just reacting to air can cause tarnish and rusting but platinum is unreactive making it perfect for every day jewellery. This resistance is what also makes platinum hypoallergenic making it the safest option for those with sensitive skin.
Jewellers use platinum to make wedding rings and bands, as well as other pieces that are worn daily as they will not only retain their shine but also will be suited to most wearers.
Platinum continues to be a choice of jewellery makers everywhere. Durable and unlike other precious metals, resistant to tarnish, platinum metal is the ideal choice when making jewellery that will be worn daily. A growing part of our range of precious metals, platinum wire is ideal for your jewellery making projects and we have everything you could need right here.
