PLATINUM SOFT COURT BEVELLED WEDDING BAND
Christine Alexander Fine Jewellery
A classic platinum wedding band. This traditionally styled ring is crafted in a court shaped profile, with a flat exterior and softly rounded interior. The special stylized slanted/bevelled edges further enhance how the light reflects off this wedding ring. The band has an elegant style that will last a lifetime. Minimal and timelessly elegant, this ring would be perfect teamed with a modern engagement ring or a minimal solitaire style ring.
Available in sizes J-Z as standard; for sizes outside this range please contact me.
3mm - 6mm available as standard; 2, 7 and 8mm styles are available via special order. Lighter weight, heavy weight and extra heavyweight also possible to order.
These bands are usually made to order, but my supplier does keep a small number in stock; please contact me for timescales. Maximum lead time 7 weeks. It'll be worth it!
Platinum is a third heavier than 18k gold and is the most expensive metal used in making jewellery (other than the rhodium used in plating). To help comprehend the rarity of platinum, it was once suggested that if all the platinum in the world was poured into an Olympic swimming pool it would not even cover your ankles! In the 18th century, the rarity of platinum was brought to the attention of King Louis XV of France, who declared that it was the only metal fit for a king.
Platinum starts off shiny when new and develops a patina with normal wear. The patina is essentially composed of many tiny scratches on the metal and will give the metal a more matte appearance.
