How to Spot Quality Handcrafted Oxidized Silver and Gold Jewellery
When investing in handcrafted jewellery, the difference is in the details. Here’s a quick and easy silver and gold mixed-metal jewellery buying guide on how to shop smart and stylish.
1. Look for Hallmarks and Metal Purity
Always check for stamps indicating the metal’s authenticity. For gold, that’s usually 14K or 18K; for silver, look for 925 (meaning sterling silver). These ensure you’re getting genuine precious metals when you shop for sterling silver and gold jewellery.
2. Pay Attention to Craftsmanship
Examine the finish and structure of the piece. Are the edges smooth? Does the piece feel balanced? Are the clasps secure? Handcrafted jewellery should feel substantial and have a visible attention to detail, from stone settings to surface texture.
3. Explore Artisan Techniques
Techniques such as oxidizing, hammering, engraving and more signal the kind of artisanal care that elevates a piece from simple to striking. These textures don’t just add style, they’re a mark of that carefully handcrafted touch.
4. Ask About Customisation
The beauty of handcrafted jewellery is that many pieces can be customised. That’s a level of personal luxury you won’t find in fast fashion jewellery.
5. Trust Transparency
Reputable fine jewellery brands will always be upfront about materials, sources and care instructions. Transparency builds trust and helps you make empowered choices.
