Platinum and white gold worn together.
Rhodium plating gives a white gold collection a uniform look whether it is 9ct white gold or 18ct white gold.

That said both platinum and 18kt white gold are fine choices for an engagement ring.
You can wear platinum and at the same time mix your golds such as.
However platinum will gradually acquire a matte texture and dark appearance which is known as a patina.
