Question: Hi David, Is a ring with the stamp “PALAD” - platinum?

I think it stands for paladium which I believe is in the same group of metals as platinum?
Many thanks, Bek
Answer: G’day Bek and many thanks for your query
Yes you are quite right. PLAD or PALAD are both used to indicate Paladium which is another of the white precious metals very often used in the settings and claws of jewelry.

Sometimes it is used on its own as it looks a lot like Platinum but without the price tag. Still more expensive than gold though.
With the recent return to the White Gold Look - you should be very happy to wear it and enjoy it.
Merry Christmas to you and your family
