The properties of Platinum Sterling…
“The platinum is used to replace at least some of the copper
present in a typical sterling silver alloy provides a greater light
reflectivity (by refining the grain structure) and resistance to tarnish (thought to be caused by oxidation of
copper) than standard sterling silver which does not incorporate platinum. Platinum Sterling is a cheaper alternative to
white gold. It is also hard wearing and very white so it does not require rhodium plating like white gold”

“Tests performed by the American Assay and Gemological Office
showed that the whiteness of platinum-sterling alloys exceeds that of both
sterling silver and white gold, with the new 3.5
percent platinum sterling displaying six times more resistant to tarnishing than standard sterling alloy”
(Wikipedia).
