chloeishere|1363475666|3406657 said:I'm confused by what you are asking, so if you could clarify:
Do you mean an alloy of 95% platinum, 5% palladium? I've honestly never heard of that mixture before.
Do you want people to compare 95/5 platinum to 95/5 palladium?
I have a 950 palladium engagement ring that I've been wearing for over a year with no issues, but I don't want to go into specific details if that isn't the question you are asking. I don't own any platinum, but I've compared it visually and feel-wise with a good friend's platinum wedding set.

Yes, I am talking an alloy of 95% platinum and 5% palladium. It is the mixture used by Gabriel and Co.

Okay, I misunderstood, too. Who told you that is what Gabriel uses? This is the very first time I have heard of that on their forum!

Sure, it would matter in theory, but will the difference in them really be discernable to the average untrained eye?
