What is the difference between white gold and platinum?

White gold is an alloy of gold and a white metal. White gold is usually colored by nickel, manganese or palladium. Gold is a fairly soft metal. The vast majority of gold that is used to make jewelry is a gold alloy. Jewelers mix gold with other metals to make the gold more durable. Pure gold is 24 carats. Peter Storm uses only 18 carat gold in their jewelry.

Platinum is a white metal that is used in jewelry. Platinum is extremely dense and long wearing, which makes it ideal for bridal ring. Platinum is rare, which makes it a coveted metal.

Should you buy a piece of jewelry in white gold or platinum?

It depends on the piece of jewelry.

Platinum is more durable but also more expensive than gold. Rings are worn on your hands. Since you use your hands for almost every part of your day, rings are at a higher risk than any other piece of your jewelry.

If you are looking to buy a wedding ring, white gold is a very good option. If you are worried about damaging your ring, here is some advice on keeping your ring safe:

If you are wondering if you should take off your rings, you should probably do so. Any activity that includes heavy hand contact is not good for rings, platinum or gold. Stainless steal is harder than any precious metal.

Take off your rings when you do dishes. You my accidentally hit your ring on the side of a dish or on a knife.

Make sure you remove your rings if you are going to play a sport. This may sound like a no brainier, but you would be surprised how many rings end up ruined during tennis matches or rock climbing. Swimming and rings is not a good match either.

3 steps:

Ideas and Sketches

The first step to creating a piece of jewelry is to brainstorm for ideas and themes. The first questions you need to ask when creating a piece of jewelry are: who are you making the piece for? Where will I wear it? What is the purpose of the piece. Then you must turn to inspiration. One of the constant themes in Peter’s pieces is empty space. The empty space creates a pause between the jewelry and your skin. The results are delicate pieces that allow you to shine though the stones.

The second step is computers and waxes.

Now that you have your ideas, it’s time to translate the ideas from sketches to a computer mock up. The advantage of using a computer is that it is easy make changes to the model. Traditionally, jewelers carved a wax copy of the piece. For every revision, there had to be a new wax copy. Today, jewelers create a computer model of the piece using special software. Since it is still important to see a physical manifestation of the piece, there are special wax “printers” which will create a 3-D wax image of the piece. In this stage, the jeweler has the opportunity to play with his creations. He can see how to add depth to his piece and make small alterations as he sees fit.

The final product

Once the jeweler has a final wax that he likes, it’s time for casting. Each wax piece is cast in either gold or Platinum, and then finished. There are several stages of finishing before stones can be set; after setting, more finishing and the final polish.

Each piece should be considered a work of art, a creation born of inspiration, time and care.

Rock My World is the first bridal collection inspired by rock n’ roll. Peter designed this collection for the young professional. She is in her late 20s or early 30s. The Rock My World collection is the intersection of emotion: music, the language of emotion, and bridal jewelry, the symbol of love and emotion. Designed for today’s hip young bride, Rock My World is a fresh new take on tradition.

What is the connection between music and Rock My World?

Music is the language of love and meaning and jewelry is the symbol of love meaning and commitment. Rock My World is the realization of free expression of creativity jewelry and music.

Does Peter use music as an inspiration for his pieces?

Yes! The Rock My World collection was born in a long nights listening of Neil Young’s After the Gold Rush. Mark Knopfler’s Golden Heart and Coldplay’s Viva La Vida also played a significant role in the creation process.
