1 Diamond Drag
Diamond drag engraving etches directly onto the jwellery's surface and is configured to controlled depths so the structure is not compromised. Diamond-drag engraving removes the top-coloured coating to expose the bare metal underneath.
Engraving elevates a piece of jewellery by making it more unique and personal.
Common Hallmarks
GOLD, YELLOW, WHITE AND PINK
990 = 24k gold = 99.9% gold 750 = 18k gold = 75% gold + alloy 585 = 14k gold = 58.5% gold + alloy 416 = 10k gold = 41.6% + alloy 375 = 9k gold = 37.5% gold + alloy
SILVER
S925 = sterling silver = 92.5% silver + alloy
TWO-TONE DESIGNS
Designs made from a two-tone combination of sterling silver and 14k gold will normally carry the hallmarks of both alloys. However, on some jewellery pieces the gold details are too small to make it physically possible to add the gold hallmark. In such cases, the gold hallmark is either added to the sterling silver part of the design or left out.
Unique to Pandora, all our jewellery is stamped with ALE, which stands for Algot Enevoldsen, the father of Pandora’s founder, Per Enevoldsen.
Hallmarks – or fineness marks – are a meaningful way to denote the content of precious metal in a piece of jewellery, defining the metal core rather than the outer plating.
