New York—Platinum Guild International has released its platinum gift guide for the holiday season.
The guide features all-new designs debuting for the holidays that offer something “fresh and meaningful” for clients looking for a standout gift, PGI said.
The gift guide is a spotlight for platinum jewelry to show its beauty, craftsmanship, and versatility.
While it is not released every year, PGI said it chose to launch a gift guide for 2025 because of the record-high gold price which is prompting retailers and consumers to look for precious metal alternatives.
As of press time, the price of gold is $4,261 an ounce, according to APMEX.
The guide is meant to serve as inspiration for those looking for an alternative metal, showing them a diverse product assortment of platinum jewelry outside of the bridal category.
“Our holiday gift guide helps consumers see platinum in a new light—as a beautiful, lasting choice for every meaningful moment,” said Jenny Luker, president of PGI USA Jewelry Inc.
“It’s a simple way to bring platinum’s strength, rarity, and emotional value to the forefront during the season when people are looking for gifts that truly endure.”
