Gold engagement rings in London’s Hatton Garden jewellers
08/05/2017Gold engagement rings in London’s Hatton Garden jewellers
Looking for engagement rings in London’s Hatton Garden jewellers is a unique experience. Whether it be a diamond or gemstone piece that you have in mind, there will be plenty of rings to be tried on in store! Given the popularity of platinum as a precious metal, it is likely that the majority of engagement rings that you see in the windows of Hatton Garden jewellers will have been crafted in this metal. But 18ct gold is also a lovely metal to craft jewellery from and for some customers, is preferred over platinum. An added benefit of gold is the choice of colour. Though many view gold as traditionally yellow in colour, rose gold and white gold are also available allowing you to pick a colour that best suits you.
When visiting Hatton Garden’s jewellers, do bear in mind that many of the platinum engagement rings seen in London can also be made in 18ct gold. Your choice of yellow, rose or white gold is a personal one, however do bear in mind that white gold will require rhodium plating as it is not naturally white in colour – this process can exaggerate wear through the excessive polishing that is required before the rhodium can be reapplied. If you have decided for the band to be crafted in gold, a platinum setting would be advised by most Hatton Garden jewellers to aid the longevity of the ring.
In time a gold wedding band will normally follow, and most customers will choose the same colour of gold to compliment the engagement ring. Popular additions are to integrate diamonds into the wedding band though this is a choice which is likely to be influenced by the style of engagement ring. If a straight band does not sit snugly next to your engagement ring, a contoured wedding ring might be the answer to ensure a flush fit.
