Hollywood a-listers go platinum at the 67th annual Golden Globe awards Platinum Jewelry Remains Top Choice for the Red Carpet Los Angeles, CA (January 17, 2010) - Platinum makes diamonds sparkle brighter on the red carpet, so it's no wonder why our favorite stars opted to wear platinum jewelry to the 67th Annual Golden Globe Awards. Style expert Michael O'Connor notes that "Celebrities are choosing one area to highlight, whether that's a large statement necklace in platinum, big earrings or stackable cuff bracelets." O'Connor adds that "Colored gemstones are making a big appearance on the red carpet. We're seeing more in the cooler palettes, such as blues and greens." Since platinum is a naturally-white metal, it will maximize the brilliance of colored stones too.

Platinum is prized for its Pure, Rare and Eternal qualities: PURE: Platinum's high level of purity (generally 90%-95% pure) endows it with both a natural white luster, allowing the true radiance of a diamond or gemstone to shine; and hypoallergenic qualities that prove ideal for sensitive skin. Only the purest platinum jewelry will bear a stamp reading "PLATINUM", "PLAT", "Pt 950", or "Pt 900", signifying the jewelry is 90% to 95% pure platinum. RARE: Platinum is 30 times more rare than gold. ETERNAL: Platinum will hold a diamond or gemstone securely, now and for always.
