From the incredible beauty of the metal’s tone to its versatility, there are a number of reasons to love platinum engagement rings.

Read on for helpful tips from the gemology experts at AZEERA.
The Nature of Platinum
With a bright, silver-white color, platinum is a highly valuable and sought-after material of excellent quality, making it an ideal choice for engagement rings and wedding bands. Platinum has enjoyed a long and illustrious history and has been found in jewelry and ceremonial objects dating back to ancient Egypt. Its strength and longevity have been prized for millennia, and these qualities also make it a natural symbolic choice for platinum bands for her, emblemizing a lifetime of love and devotion.
What Sets Platinum Engagement Rings Apart
As a premium option, platinum is often found to be rarer and in some cases more expensive than other metals. Its color profile also sets it apart as an exquisite option for rings that use alternative or multiple gemstones. Favored platinum gemstone pairings include striking stones such as diamond, black onyx, and ruby as well as subtler or more unexpected gemstones including aquamarine, peridot, and citrine.
How to Choose or Design a Platinum Ring
Given their combination of strength and delicacy, platinum bands for her include a broad range of designs, from asymmetrical, wire-thin everyday rings to elaborate, statement-worthy platinum engagement rings. Choosing the right style involves a number of considerations, from personal aesthetics to gemstones and beyond. Here are a few of our favorites across a range of styles.
Pure Minimalism
Exemplifying a chic, contemporary, and strikingly minimalist design, the Modern Open Visanavat Band is perfect for the bride who loves both style and substance. Worn on its own or with other jewelry, this platinum band for her is simple yet extraordinary.
Vintage-Inspired Elegance
For those who love a sense of timeless beauty, classically inspired platinum bands for her with a single center stone are a beautiful choice. The Petite Modern Bezel Smarani Diamond Platinum Engagement Ring features a center diamond framed by an elegant milgrain halo and band.
One-of-a-Kind Expression
Asymmetrical and multi-stone jewelry can serve as a stunning expression of your unique relationship and design sense. The Petite Bypass Alamba Ring is a brilliant example of an unusual platinum engagement ring that’s certain to set you apart.

Matching Platinum Bands
