Frequently Asked Questions – Second-Hand Gold Bracelets (9ct, 14ct, 15ct, 18ct)

Is second-hand gold real gold?
Yes, second-hand gold can be as genuine as new gold. The important factor is whether the item has been tested and hallmarked.

What does 9ct mean on a bracelet?
9ct (carat) means the item contains 37.5% pure gold, often stamped as 375.

Are 15ct gold bracelets still available?
15ct gold was common in the UK before 1932. It's now considered vintage and collectible.

Which is better – 9ct or 18ct gold?
18ct contains more pure gold (75%) compared to 9ct (37.5%), making it richer in colour and value. However, 9ct is harder and more durable for everyday wear.

Are used gold bracelets a good investment?
Yes. Pre-owned and vintage gold jewellery often retains or increases in value, especially when fully hallmarked.

Understanding Gold Purity: What Do 375, 585, and 750 Mean?

Gold is alloyed with other metals to increase durability. The numbers you often see—375, 585, and 750—represent the amount of pure gold in a piece per thousand parts.

• 375 = 9ct gold (37.5% pure gold)

• 585 = 14ct gold (58.5% pure gold)

• 750 = 18ct gold (75% pure gold)

These numerical marks are often included as part of the hallmark and help to verify the metal’s authenticity and composition. A full UK hallmark includes a sponsor’s mark, fineness mark (e.g., 375), an assay office mark, and a date letter, providing full transparency about the item's origin and gold purity.

FAQs – Gold Link Bracelets

What is a gold link bracelet?
A bracelet made from interconnected gold links, available in a variety of styles such as curb, rope, or figaro.

Are gold link bracelets durable?
Yes. The durability depends on the carat of gold. 9ct is more durable than 18ct due to a lower percentage of soft pure gold.

Can gold link bracelets be resized?
Most link bracelets can be resized by removing or adding links, but it’s best done by a professional jeweller.

Do all gold link bracelets have hallmarks?
Not always. Some may just be stamped. A full hallmark guarantees the metal has passed independent UK assay testing.

Are pre-owned gold link bracelets worth buying?
Yes. They offer excellent value and the same quality as new items, especially if fully hallmarked.

The Importance of Hallmarking

A hallmark isn't just a stamp; it's a legal guarantee of purity. By choosing a fully hallmarked gold bracelet, you gain peace of mind knowing the piece has been independently tested by a UK Assay Office. It also reduces the risk of purchasing counterfeit or misrepresented jewellery.
