QuestionHello. I found two estate pieces, one is marked 950 Plat the other is marked 1090 iridplat. The 950 has smaller diamonds, $600. The 1090 has a little larger diamonds that are set in a prong setting too, but looks like a faux channel set, $700. Both are supposedly at least 50 years old. I have a platinum engagement ring that is stamped 950. Does it matter which one I wear against my engagement ring? Also, which one is of higher value for the long run? They are both beautiful to me. Please advise, because I don't want to miss out on a ring I can actually afford. (Married 10 years, but couldn't get the band to match at the time $$$) Thanks! :)
AnswerI can not appraise on this forum. Appraisals must be done live and in person.
I dont think it matters which one you wear against your engagement ring.
