• How can you tell if David Yurman is authentic?

  1 Answer
  1stDibs ExpertSeptember 4, 2024

  To tell if David Yurman is authentic, first look for the luxury jeweler’s maker’s mark. Authentic pieces will feature a D.Y., D. Yurman or David Yurman stamp. This stamp should be accompanied by a copyright symbol and indicators of metal content, which will denote the presence of sterling silver or gold purity. The maker’s mark should be crisp and clear, with numbers and letters evenly spaced.
  
  Also, carefully examine the jewelry up close. The David Yurman brand is an internationally renowned fine jewelry empire — if you see cracks or flaws in the gemstones (which are always genuine precious or semi-precious gemstones), glue or soldering marks or other imperfections, the piece is unlikely to be genuine. If you need assistance authenticating a particular accessory, seek the help of a certified jewelry appraiser.

  1 Answer
  1stDibs ExpertAugust 26, 2024

  To tell if David Yurman jewelry is real, first study its maker's marks. On authentic pieces, you should see a "D. Yurman," "DY" or "David Yurman" stamp next to a copyright symbol. These markings should be properly aligned with the jewelry, spelled correctly, in the right font, evenly spaced and deeply stamped into the metal. Errors with the markings are a good indication that earrings, a ring, necklace, bracelet or pin are fake. A certified appraiser or other knowledgeable expert can be of assistance when authenticating your pieces. Shop a range of David Yurman jewelry on 1stDibs.
