Our Platinum Wedding Bands , like most Platinum Jewelry, are constructed with an alloyed group of six heavy metals, including platinum, palladium, rhodium, ruthenium, iridium and osmium. These other metals were barely distinguishable from each other in weight and chemistry until early in the nineteenth century. In addition to being strong and dense, platinum is also pliable. Platinum was the choice of Elvis Presley when he married Priscilla Anne Beaulieu in Las Vegas at the Aladdin Hotel. The following decades saw platinum jewelry grow in popularity, especially Wedding Bands and Bridal Jewelry. Catherine Zeta Jones and Michael Douglas also used Platinum for their matching Wedding Bands.
