Understanding Silver and 925 Hallmarking

What is 925 Silver?

The Importance of Assaying and Hallmarking

• Assaying: This is the official testing of the silver's purity by a certified authority.
• Hallmarking: Once verified, a hallmark is stamped onto the piece, confirming its quality. In the UK, this typically includes a maker’s mark, a fineness mark, and an assay office mark.

Why Choose Fully Hallmarked Silver?

• Guarantees purity and quality.
• Provides confidence in your purchase.
• Offers transparency and authentication of materials.

3. Is sterling silver hypoallergenic?
Most sterling silver is hypoallergenic, making it suitable for sensitive skin. However, individual reactions may vary depending on the alloy components.
