If you're shopping for an engagement ring, you might be trying to decide between different white metals. Maybe you've thought about buying a white gold engagement ring, but you could be looking into sterling silver options, too. Although there are beautiful sterling silver rings with timeless appeal and fabulous white diamonds, you may want to consider choosing a white gold ring that speaks to your love story instead. These are just four reasons to consider a white gold engagement ring over a sterling silver engagement ring.


1. Enjoy a More Dazzling Look With a White Gold Engagement Ring

​Sterling silver jewelry looks nice, but if you want a more dazzling look -- which you probably do when it comes to something as special as an engagement ring -- then you may want to consider a white gold ring instead. A white gold ring with rhodium plating has a bright, mirror-like sheen that simply isn't replicated by sterling silver.

2. Buy a More Durable Engagement Ring with White Gold

​Unlike most of your jewelry, an engagement ring is a ring that you will want to wear every day, all day, in most cases. Because of this, you need a ring that can stand the test of time. A white gold ring will not tarnish or darken over time like a sterling silver ring will. It will also be more resistant to scratches, dents and bends. You can keep your white gold engagement ring looking its absolute best by cleaning it regularly and taking advantage of professional jewelry cleaning and jewelry repair when needed! We offer these services at Greenbrier Pawn, so we can help you keep your ring looking great...even if you didn't buy it from us.


3. Get a Great Deal on an Engagement Ring at Greenbrier Pawn

Of course, one reason why sterling silver engagement rings are a popular choice is because they are cheaper. We get it. It's really easy to spend a lot of money on a diamond engagement ring, and sterling silver is a more affordable precious metal than gold. Luckily, it is entirely possible to buy white gold rings (or yellow gold, or rose gold, if you prefer) without breaking the bank. All you have to do is visit Greenbrier Pawn in Chesapeake, Virginia, where we sell white gold diamond rings and other stunning rings with natural diamonds for a much lower price. If you've been pining over white gold settings but have been worried about breaking your budget, don't worry...we have the perfect solution. Come see us, and buy a classic solitaire, a double halo setting, or your other dream ring for half the price. If you're shopping for diamond bands or a basic gold wedding band, you can save money on that here, too! Greenbrier Pawn is always the perfect choice for buying great jewelry for a much lower price.


4. Buy a Ring That Will Hold Its Value With White Gold & Natural Diamonds

Right now, you probably aren't thinking about selling your engagement ring! However, at some point in the future, you may want to sell it and "upgrade" to a bigger diamond ring, such as for a milestone anniversary. You may also want to use your engagement ring as collateral for a pawn loan at some point. Choosing a more valuable ring that will hold its value is a good idea for these reasons and more. If you buy a white gold ring with a natural colorless diamond, your ring is sure to hold its value quite well over time.


As you can see, although there is certainly nothing wrong with choosing a sterling silver engagement ring, there are a few reasons to consider buying a white gold engagement ring instead. White gold is a popular metal for engagement rings for a reason, after all. If you need help shopping for a gorgeous ring with timeless beauty -- all at a price point you can afford -- we would love to help!
