Royal Platinum Jewellery was what added that special touch of elegance and distinction to Kate"s wardrobe when the vows were exchanged. You don"t need to be a princess to indulge yourself with regal jewellery, like the platinum pear shaped drop earrings that spelled understated elegance, which adorned Kate Middleton on the most special day of her life.

This is not the first time platinum has made an appearance in royal jewels. Michael O"Connor, jewellery expert says, “The unique blend of modern, vintage and heirloom pieces of platinum jewelry from both her family and from William's family chosen by Kate illustrate the couple's desire to marry today's elements with the durability and traditions of yesterday. The choice of the Royal platinum Jewelleryand diamond Halo tiara by Cartier, was originally designed for the Queen Mother and then handed down to the Queen (then Princess Elizabeth) combined with newer pieces such as the platinum and diamond pear shaped drop earrings designed by Robinson Pelham (a present from Kate's parents), and the iconic sapphire and diamond engagement ring, once owned by Princess Diana, illustrate the bond of family and the lifetime legacy that quality Royal platinum jewellery provides. Kate"s jewellery style truly exemplifies that of a modern yet sophisticated royal bride."

Royal Platinum jewellery has always been the metal of the kings, and also has been used for ceremonial jewellery as long ago as 100BC, with South American Civilizations including the Incas. From the Maharajas of India to royalty the world over, this extremely precious metal has featured in the royal repertoire and handed down from generation to generation. Today Royal platinum jewellery is becoming the metal of choice for those who wants the very best.
