What is Palladium?

Palladium is an elemental, precious metal, a member of the periodic table’s Platinum Group Metals (PGM). Because of its high resistance to oxidation, Palladium like Platinum, is referred to as a Noble Metal. Palladium is a radiant, white metal like Platinum, strong like Platinum, as rare as Platinum, but affordably priced, like 18K White Gold…

Pure

Palladium, like its sister metal Platinum, is pure. Unlike Gold, Palladium can be used to create fine jewelry without adding a large proportion of alloy metals. A new, proprietary technology allows Palladium jewelry to be crafted at 95% purity as compared to 75% purity for 18K Gold or 58.5% purity for 14K Gold.

Palladium’s color is naturally white. Because its color is natural and not the result of plating or alloying, Palladium’s white has great depth and luster. A beautiful metal in its own right, Palladium enhances the beauty of the diamonds and gemstones set within it.

Palladium is a member of the Platinum Group Metals and is 17 times more rare than Gold. Mined together with Platinum and in fewer than a half-dozen regions around the globe, Palladium is truly a precious metal and a fitting symbol of love, life, and other rare gifts.

Palladium, like Platinum, is a naturally strong metal. This means Palladium can be used for fine jewelry at a higher purity level than other metals such as Gold. It also means it is strong and durable; Palladium has long been used to create the prongs trusted to secure diamonds and other gemstones.
