Are you truly getting what you pay for? 🧐 Gold is a timeless investment, but only if it’s genuine.
Every serious jewelry collector and investor in the Philippines needs to understand the marks on their pieces. Our latest infographic is your Essential Guide to Gold Hallmarks in the Philippines. 💎
Knowledge is power, and knowing these symbols protects you and ensures your investments hold their value. We break down the meaning behind common hallmarking numbers:
✨ 24K (999) - The Purest Form, 99.9% Gold. Ideal for bullion and simple, elegant designs.
✨ 22K (916) - High-Purity Common, 91.6% Gold. Resilient and perfect for intricate patterns.
✨ 18K (750) - The Philippine Standard, 75.0% Gold. Offers the optimal balance of purity and durability.
✨ 14K (585) - Durable Daily Wear, 58.3-58.5% Gold. Highly resilient for your everyday pieces.
What to look for? Use our guide to see what hallmarks look like up close! Remember that a warm, slightly reddish hue in higher karats is often a sign of quality alloying.
🚨 BE CAUTIOUS: Beware of "14Kt" brass imitations! Always purchase from a reputable and trusted jeweler to guarantee authenticity. At MJM Jewel House, Inc., we are committed to providing only Certified Purity.
Need to verify your existing pieces? If marks are missing, professional acid or X-ray testing by experts is required.
