Collection: Alternative Cut Platinum Engagement Rings

Platinum is a naturally white metal, so it needs no plating to stay white, and its cool tone sets off a stone's flash without adding color of its own. It is also dense: a platinum ring feels noticeably heavier on the hand than the same ring in gold. For shapes chosen for their outline — a radiant's cropped corners, a marquise's pointed ellipse, a pear's taper — it is the quiet setting that lets the silhouette lead.

Luvari's alternative cut platinum engagement rings are made in 950 platinum, in solitaire, bezel, side-stone, and three-stone settings, with center stones of 1 or 2 carats in lab grown diamond, natural diamond, and lab grown sapphire. Details can be tailored through the semi-custom process. This collection suits the buyer whose taste is dramatic and whose metal is understated — the bold outline, held in white metal.
