Metal Guide
One of the two most popular metals along with gold. At Diamond Story we only use Platinum 950 for our jewellery as this has the highest platinum content for jewellery making. Platinum is harder than gold so will be more resistant to scratching and being a naturally white material its white sheen will not change colour from wear and tear. Platinum is great as it accentuates the sparkle of diamonds perfectly and will last for a lifetime.
Universally loved and desired, gold has a way of capturing peoples hearts. The other popular metal along with Platinum. At Diamond Story we specialize in 18K white, yellow or rose gold as this has the highest gold content without compromising strength. 22K and 24K jewellery is also possible to be custom made. 9K and 14K are also popular options for customers. 18K Gold is fantastic as it is very strong but still malleable so resizing is easier. Being resistant to tarnish, rust and corrosion, Gold will last forever. A very strong material but also the most malleable of all precious metals, goldsmiths and jewellers alike love Gold for its ease in creating dream pieces.
Diamond Story only uses Sterling Silver for our Silver jewellery range. Affordable, beautiful and brilliant, Silver jewellery will give you years of joy.
Palladium, one of the rarest metals in the world, is a member of the Platinum Group Metals. These metals are also referred to as "Noble Metals" due to their superior ability to withstand corrosion and oxidation. 18K white gold is usually is mixed with palladium to make the base metal whiter.
