When purchasing a precious metal jewel, it is important to be sure of what you are buying, without having to rely solely on the word of the seller.
In Italy, the processing and sale of precious metal objects are regulated: a piece of jewelry must bear two specific hallmarks that identify the fineness of the metal it is made from and who is responsible for its creation.
For this reason, you will find two small hallmarks on Rami di Artemisia jewelry.
The first indicates the fineness of the metal, i.e., the quantity of precious metal present in the alloy: for example, 925 for sterling silver.
The second is my identifying mark ⭐ 313 PV, assigned and registered with the Chamber of Commerce. The star, the number, and the province abbreviation uniquely identify the company responsible for the jewel.
They are not simply a signature or a decorative element: they are a guarantee for the buyer and are part of the responsibilities that come with working professionally with precious metals.
For me, being a goldsmith artisan also means this: being able to put my mark on what I create and taking responsibility for what ends up in your hands.
Look for these small marks on your jewel: they tell you what metal you are wearing and who made it.
