Flower Inspired Platinum Engagement Rings

 

 

Flowers are beautiful but have to suffer the passing of time even faster than we do… There’s a romantic yet ironic old French poem from Ronsard talking about the fleeting beauty of women and comparing it to flowers. You can read it in French and English here. Some good news though, fine jewelry can be everlasting! It will stay beautiful and last through generations and generations if well maintained. Even more so if it is made with platinum and diamonds. Platinum’s strength and durability make it the securest setting for diamonds and precious gemstones.  It is is a great choice for engagement rings and wedding bands because it won’t change color or fade. It is why it symbolizes perfectly a relationship that will endure. Jewelry designers are often inspired by flowers when designing engagement rings. Here are 7 Platinum engagement rings inspired by flowers that will stand the test of time.
