Platinum not only looks fabulous on you, it is strong, pure and rare. Jewelers will tell you, it's the choice for setting fine colored gems and diamonds. And it's not just for women… Men also enjoy the understated elegance of platinum.

Considering an investment in platinum? Like gold jewelry, platinum pieces are stamped so you know they're authentic. In fact, unless it contains more than 50 per cent pure platinum, it cannot be marked with the word "platinum". Platinum jewelry usually contains 85 to 95 per cent pure platinum. Look for one of the following stamps: 950 Plat, 950 Pt, 850 Plat or 850Pt.

Taking care of platinum jewelry

One of the most rare and durable precious metals, platinum is hypoallergenic
It's resistant to tarnishing and discoloration from chlorine and other chemicals
Clean as you would other fine jewelry, but if it is set with diamonds or other precious stones and metals, clean as you would for those substances
Store separately -- even platinum can be scratched
