Hi, I am just wondering whether rose gold or platinum prongs would look better with a pink stone, so would appreciate it if anyone had pictures to show the contrast of pink on rose or pink on plat/silver.

Appreciate the help :))

Tristan, these are earrings but I thought it would give you an idea at least - the bezel set pair is supposed to be rose gold, although it looks a little like yellow gold in the pic. sorry the one pic is so big

Thanks a lot, hope there are more pictures. The preferred response seems to be to head towards rose gold, but from some pictures I actually like seeing pink with platinum around it.

So more pictures please!

I know this isn't what you're asking for, but I highly prefer peachy/pink stones with yellow gold.

You know, I expected to prefer rose gold, but I'm actually digging the white metals in these pics.

To my eyes yellow gold makes a pink stone appear warmer pink (towards orange) and white metal pulls it towards a cooler pink (towards purple).

YUM!!! :love: I'll take the giant orangy pink one in the middle. Are they all diamonds?

I also prefer yellow gold with peachy stones. I love the warmth.

Re: Pictures please of pink/peach stones with plat/silver pr

I assume everything I posted is a diamond.
I just Googled Pink Diamond Ring, but I didn't check to verify they were all diamonds.
Still this thread is about the look of various metals next to the pink stone.


Ideally we'd get these all Photoshopped and put the same diamond ring in 3 pics side by side one with yellow gold, the other with white and the last with rose gold.

Also all these different hues of pink diamond make it confusing to my eyes.

Re: Pictures please of pink/peach stones with plat/silver pr

Thanks a Million for the quick effort Kenny. I appreciate it.

I have actually been over most of these google image photos myself, but your efforts are not in vain! They are great grounds for further discussion as there are now lots of pictures to compare against. Quite a number of those stones are pink sapphires, not diamonds. I clicked on many of the links previously to see more details.

I know that the mindset is that rose gold is the way to go, but I really am finding that the platinum set ones seem 'prettier' to me. At least in vendor photos.

I actually wanted more true to life photos as well from the various PS members who have the good fortune of owning pink set gems (spinels, garnets, sphenes whatever) and pink diamonds if there are a hidden cache of them are more than welcome too! I find many vendor photos a bit false, so I wanted to know how 'washed out' pink stones look in platinum settings.

Actually TL, these are EXACTLY what i was asking for. Real life pictures of pink stones in various metal settings. Besides, some rose golds look like yellow gold. I am finding that I like the cooler purplish tone of pink set in platinum/silver rather than the reddish/warmer brownish pink tones of rose gold.

Hi Kenny, was wondering if you checked out this website at all? Rothem collection is on its own website and they have some very pretty looking things.

This is a pinkish champagne diamond that I had set with an 18K rose gold head. I know it's not exactly pink or in full white metal but it gives you an idea of what it looks like with a rose gold head and a white gold shank.

A few of mine - first picture with rose gold and you can see the diamond's colour in the second photo (loose princess cut). Middle photo is a montage I already had but shows some rose gold and some set in white gold. Last photo is a purplish pink set in 18k w/gold.

What about mixing tones between the shank and head? The gold on this tourmaline's head is peachy: not pink, not yellow and the shank is 18k white.

I know I'm the minority, but I think I prefer white metals with pink stones...

I like pink with white metal. I also have hot pink set in silver, but I don't think that's the hue you're inquiring about...
