Every piece of jewelry tells its own story - and the metal you choose sets the scene. Different precious metals have their very own character: Warmth, strength, expression and meaning. Every gemstone needs a stage, and the metal of your choice sets the scene. Whether the timeless warmth of yellow gold appeals to you, the cool elegance of platinum or something unusual - your decision not only shapes the look of your ring, but also how it feels with you every day.
Platinum: strength in a simple form
Timeless and powerful in its restraint - platinum is known for its natural white shine and impressive resilience. It is hypoallergenic, non-tarnishing and has a comfortable weight - a worthy material for a symbol that is meant to last forever.
Thanks to its density and durability, platinum is particularly suitable for everyday wear and for those who prefer an elegant, low-maintenance choice. Platinum is like the strong, silent type: noble, durable and made to stand the test of time.
18 carat yellow gold: the classic romantic
Warm, rich and radiant - yellow gold has been considered the metal of love for centuries, and for good reason. It consists of 75% pure gold, reinforced with alloying metals to ensure it can withstand the rigors of daily wear. Its soft, buttery sheen will never go out of fashion and exudes a timeless nostalgia.
Compared to 14k gold, 18k gold has an even more intense appearance, is more resistant and less susceptible to corrosion - perfect for engagement rings that are intended to bring a lifetime of joy.
18 carat rose gold: a modern classic
For those who like to show a little uniqueness, rose gold offers romance with a gentle twist. Its warm, rosy hue is created by alloying gold with copper - this not only gives it its unmistakable tone, but also additional hardness.
Rose gold flatters most skin tones, radiates warmth and is also more affordable than platinum. A practical note: Due to the copper content, rose gold may be unsuitable for people with metal allergies - yellow gold or platinum are then the better choice.
18 carat white gold: understated elegance
White gold combines a clear, silvery-bright look with an attractive price. Rhodium plating gives it its lustrous shimmer, which should be refreshed occasionally over the years.
It is ideal for anyone who prefers modern elegance and cool shades without wanting the density or price of platinum.
Bicolor: the best of two worlds
Can't make up your mind? You don't have to. Bicolor rings combine different metals - for example, a platinum setting with a yellow gold ring band - to create an exciting contrast.
A sophisticated choice for couples who appreciate harmony but also love a touch of surprise: Tradition with a modern twist.
The metal behind the magic
The precious metal you choose does far more than hold your gemstone - it accompanies you every day and shapes how your ring feels in your life. It becomes part of your everyday life, a small, meaningful detail full of style and history.
With the right choice, your ring will feel effortless, familiar and completely you.
