Understanding UK Hallmarks: How to Confirm Your Jewellery Is Real

Understanding UK Hallmarks: How to Confirm Your Jewellery Is Real
  by Burak Onur Sahin

One of the most common questions customers ask is: “How do I know my jewellery is real gold?”
In the United Kingdom, the answer is simple: hallmarking.

A UK Hallmark is an independent certification carried out by official Assay Offices such as London, Birmingham, Sheffield and Edinburgh. Every hallmarked item includes symbols that confirm:

  • The purity of the gold (e.g., 585 for 14K)

  • The identifying mark of the Assay Office

  • The registered maker’s mark

At Majestic Jewellery, every piece is legally hallmarked to guarantee that the gold purity is exactly as advertised. This gives customers peace of mind, improves resale confidence, and ensures transparency across the entire buying process.

Whether you’re purchasing everyday luxury or a bespoke engagement piece, understanding hallmarks helps you make informed, safe and confident jewellery decisions.
