Pt is the abbreviation of platinum, and it is also the "identity authentication" of platinum jewelry. Pt950 is the most common purity mark of platinum jewelry on the market. pt950 means that jewelry contains 95% platinum and the remaining 5% is other precious metals.

Second, how much is a gram of platinum?

At present, the market quotation of pt950 is around 192 yuan/gram, but the price is changing at any time! And the domestic major jewelry brands offer around 300-350 yuan/gram. Hmm? Why is the price of jewelry brand so high?

Platinum and gold are often compared. In terms of color, platinum with purity of pt950 is only natural white, while gold includes white K gold (white luster gold) and rose gold in addition to the well-known golden yellow.

Third, how to maintain platinum?

Platinum, like other precious metals, will inevitably leave scratches when worn for a long time. But the scratch of platinum is only the displacement of metal, and the quality will not be reduced. You can maintain platinum jewelry by mastering the following four points:

(1) safekeeping. Don't wear it when doing heavy work or physical activities. When not in use, keep platinum in a jewelry box or suede bag alone to avoid scratches caused by friction with other jewelry.

② Keep away from chemicals, and avoid platinum jewelry contacting with irritating chemicals such as bleach or perfume. Although they will not damage platinum, they may discolor diamonds or precious stones.

③ Clean and use professional jewelry cleaner on time, or soak the jewelry in mild soapy water and gently wipe it with a soft cloth. Inlaid platinum jewelry needs to be cleaned once every 6 months ~

(4) The visible scratches or natural oxide layers on the platinum surface can be repaired as new by regular polishing.
