		<description>Hi Vicki,
You can wear these two metals together. There may be a slight color difference but other than that you will be fine, Thank you, Sincerely, Jill Renee</description>

		<description>The 950 marking could mean Platinum or Palladium. This stamping is not valid for precious metal verification. The trade stamping law states that the 950 should be followed by PT or PD. The only way you can know for sure if there is any precious metal in your ring is to have it tested.</description>

		<description>I have a ring that is marked 950.  There are no other marks on the ring other than the 950.  It has a hefty weight in its feel so I think it is platinum.  Is 950 the marking for platinum?</description>

		<description>Dear Marie,
Precious metal jewelry must have a trademark stamp. Palladium will be stamped 950 PD, 950 PALL, Pd or Pall. White gold will be stamped 10K, 14K, 18K. Nickel, Tin or Stainless will not be marked. There is a federal law that ensures precious metal must be trademarked correctly and there is a hefty fine if jewelery manufacturers stamp their product incorrectly. Thank you, Sincerely, Jill Renee</description>

		<description>How can I tell if a piece of jewelry is Palladium, White Gold, Nickel, Tin, Stainless Steel or what? Is Palladium always marked Pd 46? Thanks for your help.</description>

		<description>We have moved our blog to this new site. I did receive very good questions that I wanted to move to this blog. Read below for the question and answer.

If I purchase a palladium ring from your &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.danforthdiamond.com/palladium/index.html&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;website&lt;/a&gt;, is it 950 palladium? What is it alloyed with? Why isnÃ¢â‚¬â„¢t it pure palladium? Are platinum rings 100% platinum? Are there any downfalls to palladium? Will it stay as shiny as platinum? Will it ever discolor?


Yes our &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.danforthdiamond.com/palladium/index.html&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;palladium rings&lt;/a&gt; are 950 Palladium. Palladium and Platinum are alloyed because these metals are to soft in their pure form to be worn. All mfgÃ¢â‚¬â„¢s alloy their metals differently and we do not have their formulas. Most Platinum rings are 950. There arenÃ¢â‚¬â„¢t any downfalls to 950 Palladium; the cost is much lower than platinum and the color and durability are similar. 950 Palladium will not discolor and again is very durable.</description>
