About Karat Platinum
What is Karat Platinum?
Karat Platinum™ and 14 Karat Platinum® are brand names for a revolutionary new alloy 58.5% pure platinum combined with 41.5% cobalt/copper. This remarkable alloy is indistinguishable in beauty, luster, and durability from conventional 95% pure platinum. Its unprecedented flexibility allows the creation of a full line of elegant jewelry – at half the cost of conventional platinum.
Quality
Extraordinarily rare, platinum is one of the world's most precious metals. Since Karat Platinum™ is platinum it looks, feels and has the same radiant sheen as 950/50 platinum. In rigorous laboratory corrosion and abrasion tests designed to check for tarnishing, Karat Platinum™ actually outperformed conventional 950/50 platinum, emerging from the tests without colorations or stains. Like conventional platinum, Karat Platinum™ is hypoallergenic and ideal for those with sensitive skin.
Karat Platinum™ is identical in color to 950/50 platinum and brighter than white gold. A major difference is that white gold achieves its whiteness through an alloy or plating process, and it may need replating to retain its color. Karat Platinum™ is a natural white metal that maintains its luster and beauty forever.
Cleaning Karat Platinum™ jewelry with mild, soapy warm water suffices to maintain the metal's shine and polish. As with other fine jewelry, it should be stored in a fabric-lined box. Do not wear platinum while doing rough work, and avoid contact with harsh chemicals. If platinum becomes scratched or a patina begins to develop, a jeweler can restore the original lustrous surface.

Karat Platinum isn't official but...,
By
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Karat Platinum 20mmx20mm Polished Hoop Earrings (Jewelry)
I bought these for my fiance' to match her platinum rings.
Karat Platinum is 58.5% platinum. I've learned PLAT950 or PLAT is generally 95% platinum. PLATIRID is 90% Platinum (10% Iridium). (Apparently 14K gold is 58% gold and 18K gold is 75% gold). There seems to be some controversy over Karat platinum as it is not officially recognized by some jewelry metal groups. But it is a lot cheaper. These are much lighter than I thought they would be. With other Platinum jewelry we have they seem much heavier than expected. These earrings are very light and I expected them to be heavier. I'm not sure if this is how Karat Platinum is or if they were just hollowed out but this may be a concern for some. My fiance does like how they clip on. Apparently some hoop earrings are difficult to put on, these are easy and they snap onto the "hook". Overall, I'm not disappointed with this purchase but not overly excited. I'd give it 3.5 stars if I could but not quite 4.

Locally it was hard to find a jewerly store that carries these. I was able to place the order and have them in very short order. This was a very easy transaction.
