Buying jewellery isn’t just about beauty. Authenticity matters because it protects your investment and emotional value.
At Saraswaan, we ensure every piece meets strict purity, hallmarking and certification standards. Here are practical ways to verify authenticity before purchasing.
How to Check Gold Jewellery Purity
The most reliable way to verify gold purity is through BIS Hallmarking.
A properly hallmarked gold item will have:
- BIS logo
- Purity/fineness mark (e.g., 916 for 22K, 750 for 18K)
- Assaying & hallmarking centre number/mark
- Jeweller’s unique identification mark
- Year of hallmarking code
Along with BIS hallmarking, purity can be verified using modern testing machines.
At Saraswaan, gold purity is checked using:
- Spectrometer machine
- Karatmeter machine (Gold purity tester machine)
These machines accurately test metal composition to ensure transparency for customers.
How to Check Diamond Authenticity
A genuine diamond comes with certification from authorised labs such as:
- GIA
- IGI
- SGL
The quality of a diamond is measured using the 4Cs:
- Cut
- Colour
- Clarity
- Carat weight
Some certified diamonds include a microscopic laser inscription matching the certificate number. Saraswaan provides this documentation transparently whenever available.
How to Check Silver Purity
Silver purity marking is usually indicated by 925, meaning 92.5% pure silver.
Other indications of genuine silver include:
- Slight tarnishing over time
- Non-magnetic nature
- BIS hallmark or jeweller stamp
At Saraswaan, every silver piece is purity-checked and documented before sale.
