However, these fraudulent hallmarks often aren't identical to the genuine markings, and noticing this difference can help you spot fakes being passed off as genuine pieces.

    One way to identify jewelry markings is to use trusted online resources. You can enter a description of the markings in a search engine to get results, whether they are serial numbers, a brand’s maker’s marks, or some other inscription that may appear on an accessory’s inner band or clasp. Ultimately, you’ll likely want to work with a certified appraiser who specializes in jewelry to accurately identify your jewelry’s markings.
