950 platinum

Josephine Leroy works with 950 platinum for his jewellery. Platinum is as rare as no other precious metal. Platinum is usually offered in the 950 alloy. This consists of 95% platinum and 5% of a metal admixture and is particularly hard and resistant. Due to its exceptional toughness, there is virtually no abrasion on the jewellery pieces - the material merely shifts sideways. Moreover, hardly any other material can hold stones as securely as platinum.

Description

We use only natural gemstones that are cut to size in a complex process and sorted by hand in a multi-stage selection process.

After the first multiple sorting, the stones are cut and polished into a brilliant shape, then they are sorted again according to size, colour and purity. In order to fit the stones into a circle, 18 stones must be found that differ as little as possible in appearance. This requires a very well trained eye, which can detect the finest differences. When the stones are assembled for a circle, they are carefully placed by hand into the setting and fixed like a diamond. As a rule, a maximum of 1% of the respective raw stone can be used for our precious objects. To achieve the highest possible quality, all work is done by hand and by experienced specialists. As few foreign inclusions as possible and a concise colour are the characteristics which correspond to our quality standard.

The typical color of a citrine is yellow brown transparent. It is available in all shades. Citrine is found in igneous rocks (rocks produced under conditions of intense heat) and metamorphic rocks, especially in granite and gneiss. It also occurs in classic sediments (matter that settles on the bottom of a liquid). Most good crystals are found as trace elements in mineral veins. Citrine is often found in combination with amethyst, but it is much rarer than its purple cousin. Since it is weather resistant, it is also found in alluvial sands and pebbles. The largest supplier of natural citrine is the state of Rio Grande do Sol in southern Brazil. Citrine mines in the USA are located in Colorado, North Carolina and California. The gemstone is also found all over the world, in Spain, Brazil, Africa, South Africa, France, Great Britain, Madagascar and the Soviet Union. bottom of a liquid settles).
