Ensuring Quality and Authenticity – The Importance of Hallmarking

As part of my commitment to quality and authenticity, I have all gold jewellery hallmarked and any Sterling silver over 7 grams. But what does that mean for you? Let’s dive into it!

What is Hallmarking? 🏷️

In simple terms, hallmarking is like your jewellery’s official "birth certificate" that confirms it’s made from high-quality precious metals. Think of it as a stamp of approval – your jewellery gets a little mark, proving that it’s crafted from genuine solid metals like sterling silver or gold.

Why is it Important? ⚖️

Hallmarking ensures that every piece of jewellery meets strict standards of purity and quality. For more information on Hallmarking requirements in the UK click here.

It's a way of saying, “This piece is as pure as the sea!” Alice Catherine Jewellery is registered with the Edinburgh Assay Office ensuring my precious metal jewellery is compliant with the UK’s hallmarking regulations. 🌊💍

What Will You See? 👀

If your jewellery has been hallmark-checked, you’ll notice a tiny mark on it – like a secret symbol that tells you your piece is the real deal. It might be small, but it’s mighty, and it means your jewellery will last for years to come.

I am very happy to offer this extra layer of assurance, and hope it makes wearing your jewellery feel even more special!
