More intricate designs can include hand-carved milgrain detailing subtle settings of diamonds.
Platinum is known for its 90%-95% purity with a grey-white sheen. As a denser metal, platinum wedding rings have excellent resistance to wear, making them ideal to hold gemstones and intricate designs firmly. Its lifelong colour makes it an expensive metal, whether you choose plain platinum men’s wedding bands or a unique one with diamonds. 18K white gold has 75% purity of gold and is mixed with white alloys such as nickel or palladium.

Although it costs comparatively less, rhodium plating incurs an extra cost.
