Platinum rings in UK

Prior to 1975, there was no requirement for an item of jewellery containing platinum to be hallmarked and no common standard regarding purity. Therefore, older pieces of jewellery may simply have a 'plat', 'pt' or 'platinum' markngs. These pieces will need to be tested by us to determine the platinum content.
There are now four accepted levels of purity for platinum, as shown in the table on the right.
Typical items we purchase that containin platinum include:

• Wedding, engagement and eternity rings
• platinum watches
• platinum coins and bullion
• industrial and scientific items such as platinum crucibles & thermocouples.

We accept all purities of platinum. Our platinum price is the same for hallmarked and non-hallmarked items. Testing is usually completed on the day of receipt and for customers who elect to have payment into their bank account, funds are transferred by 5pm on the same day.

What to look for in a platinum ring:

A platinum ring is precious. A platinum engagement ring is the perfect choice to mark the most important and meaningful relationship of your life. The design of your platinum ring is a very personal decision, however there are four general points to consider:

GEMSTONE(S): Where a ring contains one or more gemstones, these will account for the greatest portion of the ring’s cost. The size, colour, clarity and cut of a stone will directly affect the price and value of the ring.

SETTING: A platinum setting is the most secure way to hold the stone(s), ensuring the ring endures a lifetime of wear. There are a variety of settings available, each gives the ring its unique style.

BAND: The band offers a wealth of considerations, from size, finishes to styles.
HALLMARK: : The hallmark identifies the type and purity of the metal used in the setting. All platinum rings bought in India should be stamped with this information.
