Hallmarking

Wild & Sapphire is registered for hallmarking at the London Assay Office.

Where a finished piece weighs more than the legal limit it will be hallmarked in accordance with UK law. Excluding the weight of any gemstones, the limits are:

• 1g for solid gold 
• 1g for mixed precious metal (i.e. silver and solid gold)
• 7.78g for silver

The majority of Wild & Sapphire silver jewellery is exempt from hallmarking requirements as it falls below the weight limit. As a rule, I do not apply a hallmark to silver jewellery unless legally required as it is a chargeable service for me and would mean an increase to prices to cover it.

If you would like your Wild & Sapphire jewellery hallmarked despite falling under the limit, I can arrange this. Additional charges for admin, hallmarking & postage will apply.
