In fact, although their names are similar, the essence is that when buying a diamond ring, some newcomers entangled why the diamond ring is written with white gold diamond ring, and some is written with 18K white gold diamond ring. The prices are different. Is it better to buy platinum? Is it better to buy 18k platinum? In fact, although their names are similar, their essence is quite different, and they cannot be generalized. Today the author will talk to you about the advantages and disadvantages of white gold diamond rings and 18K gold diamond rings. K gold article: 　　　　18K white gold diamond ring Gold is one of the rare and precious metals. Its soft texture makes it difficult to directly use as a jewelry material. The industry usually adds a small amount of copper, silver, nickel and other metals to gold to increase it The strength and toughness of this kind of gold is 'K gold'. According to the different gold content, it is divided into 24K gold, 22K gold, 18K gold, 14K gold, etc. (1K gold contains 4.166% of gold). Among them, 18K gold is used The most extensive, 75% gold content, and 25% other precious metals, 18K white gold, is silver-white 18K gold, it is gold! Advantages of 18K gold diamond ring: 　　　　18K gold has the advantage of changing colors. Because it contains 25% of other metals, 18K gold will appear in different colors. There are 18K white gold, 18K rose gold, yellow 18K gold and other colors, fashion sense Quite enough, 18K white gold and a small amount of 18K rose gold are commonly used to make diamond rings. Usually the natural color of 18K white gold is white and yellowish. After all, it contains 75% gold. Generally, a layer of rhodium is plated on its surface to make it appear silvery white and brighter. Advantage 2: The price of 　　　　 18K gold is more affordable than platinum, and cheaper than pure gold, but it is not inferior in appearance, especially the electroplated 18K white gold diamond ring and platinum (platinum) diamond ring. The silvery white precious metal feels very Similar, but some unscrupulous merchants buy K platinum as platinum. Newcomers should pay attention. K platinum and platinum are two different precious metals. Platinum is called platinum. Buying K platinum at the price of platinum is indeed a loss. Advantage three: 　　　　 18K gold is relatively high in ductility and hardness. When used in the design of diamond rings, it can flexibly show the shape and creativity of the ring. It can make relatively complex diamond ring styles, especially large carat diamond rings, than platinum. The supporting force of the diamond is stronger than that of platinum, which can protect the precious diamond firmly to prevent the diamond from falling off and causing loss. The disadvantages of 18K gold are mentioned above. 18K white gold has an electroplated layer on the surface. Therefore, after wearing it for a long time, some newcomers find that their K white gold ring turns yellow slightly. That is because after wearing for a long time, it is often rubbed Where the plating layer is worn off, the original color is exposed, the best way to deal with it is to take it to the jewelry store and re-plating to restore the brightness. Platinum articles: 　　　　 Pt950 ring platinum is also called'Platinum', which is a naturally formed silver-white precious metal. It is precisely because of the name'Platinum' that everyone will misunderstand that the white precious metal is platinum. In my country, only metal Platinum (the chemical symbol is Pt) can be called'Platinum', newcomers must remember! Pure platinum is soft in texture. If you want to inlay diamonds, you have to form an alloy to increase its hardness to meet the inlay requirements. The commonly used diamond ring platinum is Pt950, which is 950‰ platinum and 5% palladium, rhodium, iridium and other metal alloys. Pt990 diamond rings are also useful. The advantages of 　　　　Pt950 diamond ring 　　　　Advantage 1: 　　　　The silvery white luster of platinum will not dim over time, it can always maintain the natural silvery white color, bringing out the fire color of the diamond to the greatest extent, and it is very beautiful. Advantage 2: 　　　　 platinum refining process and production process are very complicated, the technical level is higher than the mixed type K gold, the amount of platinum mining is only 5% of the gold, tons of raw ore can only be done after complicated steps Come out a simple ring, the rare thing is precious, this is really the preciousness of the platinum diamond ring. Advantage 3: 　　　　 platinum has strong toughness and memory, especially its toughness. One gram of platinum can stretch 2000m of platinum filaments, which can produce different textures, but its hardness is not very high. After alloying, the hardness is not as good as 18K gold. Therefore, the diamond ring used to inlay large carats still has to test the craftsman's inlay craft. Disadvantages of platinum Gold can be regarded as the hard currency of the world, and although platinum is more expensive, its quantity is not very large, so its currency capacity is not very strong. If you want to rely on platinum to invest, it is still very difficult. It is better to buy Gold is more valuable. For a small self-wearing ring, a platinum ring does not have the high value of 'trade-in' as high as K gold. There are many shops that recycle and reprocess gold jewelry, but very few platinum is recycled, because Platinum is difficult to process, and the purification loss is large. It is not easy to inspect and reprocess. Even if it is recycled, the price is very low. Generally, a platinum diamond ring is bought for a lifetime.　　　　 The above is the information about diamond ring customization summarized by the author for you.
