Is 10K Italy real gold?

1 Answer
Is 10K Italy real gold?
Yes, 10K Italy may be real gold. Pieces that display this mark are usually made in workshops and factories based in Italy out of 10-karat gold. 10-karat gold is a gold alloy made of 41.7% gold and 58.3% base metals, so the 10K marking does indicate a piece is real gold. However, "Italy" hallmarks are a popular choice for counterfeiters to add to their jewelry. As a result, you may wish to seek the opinion of a certified appraiser or knowledgeable jeweler.
