A pair of rings in each metal
| Metal | Pair weight | Price a gram | Price of the pair |
|---|---|---|---|
| 22K gold | 8 g | ₹13,160 | ₹1,21,451 |
| 18K gold | 8 g | ₹10,768 | ₹1,02,038 |

The pair weights assume a men’s band of about 5 grams and a women’s ring of about 3 in gold. Platinum is denser, so the same design weighs more; silver is lighter. Stones are billed on top.
How they differ
- Platinum: naturally white, needs no plating and wears well every day, with higher making charges. See platinum rate in India.
- 22K gold: the traditional yellow, softer, and keeps the most value.
- 18K gold: harder wearing and holds stones well; also comes in white and rose gold.
- 925 silver: the least costly, for a promise ring or everyday pair; it tarnishes and needs polishing.
