925 = silver, gold color = gold plating
Probably your earrings are set in gold or silver? 925 refers to the metal purity. In the case of silver this would be the sterling silver standard.
I had the same question. And there seems to be some contradiction in AU. I have found a maker of the name Archibald Ure a silver and gold smith from Edinburgh, Scotland 1700-1730. However, I don’t believe the earrings I have, and are marked 925 AU c, are from 1700s. I haven‘t found any other makers with the copyright AU yet.
The markings you describe are probably in the metal holding the stones. Take your diamonds to a local jeweler and ask for a determination as to the value of the stones.
Gold is not marked 925, sterling silver is. What you have is probably gold PLATED sterling.
"AT1 925 CH" on silver earrings typically indicates the purity of the silver (925 refers to 92.5% silver content). The "CH" may refer to the manufacturer or a specific collection. The presence of a diamond suggests that the earrings are adorned with a diamond accent.
Gold marked 925 indicates that it is actually sterling silver, not gold. Sterling silver is a metal alloy consisting of 92.5% silver and 7.5% of other metals such as copper. The 925 marking is a common standard for sterling silver jewelry.
Yes, if an item is marked 14k and 925, it indicates that it is made of real gold (14 karat) and real silver (925 sterling silver). The markings represent the purity of the metals used in the piece.
No, 14K gold cannot be marked as 925 because 925 is the standard marking for sterling silver, not gold. Each metal has its own unique markings to signify its purity, with 14K indicating the gold content percentage in an item.
Yes If it is marked as 925 then it is silver
It is a makers mark. I have a pair of silver earrings that have ALR 925 on them. From what I can find on the internet, it is the mark of Alphonse Louis Reis.
1.3 is the total karat weight of the diamonds in the bracelet. 925 stands fopr 925 parts out of 1000. This is a common inscription for sterling silver as 925 parts of 1000 indicates the silver is sterling quality.
