    The colors of gold for an engagement ring are white gold, yellow gold, and rose gold. The most popular choice for an engagement ring is white gold.

    Platinum

    Platinum is the most pure and precious metals used in jewelry. It is extremely resistant to tarnishing and corrosion and is very soft and malleable.

    The colors for an engagement ring in platinum is a natural white with a beautiful brilliance.

    The price difference between a platinum and a gold solitaire ring is primarily imputable to the metal's purity level.
    The platinum solitaire ring is commonly $500 to $800 more expensive than a gold solitaire ring since there is more pure platinum in it. Also, it is 66% heavier than 14k gold.
