Welcome to palladiumweddingbands.co.uk one of the main sources on the internet for information on palladium wedding rings and palladium diamond rings
Palladium is a rare white metal, in fact palladium is rarer than gold and harder than Platinum. Palladium does have some very beneficial properties particularly over white gold when considering making palladium wedding rings our palladium bespoke diamond rings.
The weight of 950 palladium wedding bands is very close to that of 14k white gold wedding bands. However, palladium wedding bands will stay white forever, never needing the “renewed whitening” from rhodium plating that white gold requires. Palladium wedding bands are the perfect choice for those with sensitivity to non pure metals. Palladium is an extremely rare metal, much more so than gold. It is one of the whitest of all metals and consequently yields wedding bands of extraordinary and uncommon beauty. Plus, palladium wedding bands are incredibly durable and virtually tarnish proof.
Did you know? that Palladium is about 12% harder than Platinum!
White gold is not a true white metal like platinum or palladium. It is made by mixing pure yellow gold with other white metals like zinc and nickel to change its colour to white. As a result, it usually has a slight yellowish tint. To enhance the whiteness of white gold jewellery it is electroplated with another precious metal called rhodium. Rhodium is very white, reflective, extremely hard and virtually tarnish free, so it's the perfect protective coating for a white gold ring. However, rhodium coatings wear off gradually. Many people choose to have their rings re-plated with rhodium. Others love their rings with the natural not-quite-white look of white gold.
