Choosing an Engagement Ring

The right precious metal

Platinum
You basically have three choices in metal for engagement rings and wedding bands: platinum, 18k yellow or white gold. The cool, elegant look of platinum
Yellow Gold
is especially popular today and with good reason: it is the strongest, most pure metal. Platinum is more rare than gold and will last a lifetime, resisting chipping and tarnishing. White gold has a look similar to platinum, but is more malleable and less expensive.

If your intended prefers the classic look of yellow gold, 18k gold is a safe bet. It's the most common engagement ring setting and is less expensive than platinum.

White Gold

Most of the designers that Pearlman's represents create engagement rings in platinum and 18k gold. Some to consider include the elegant and unique designs of Alexander Primak, Jane Taylor's ultra-contemporary looks, and Eddie Sakamoto's arresting modern designs.
