823 is a jewelers code for 585 (14kt gold). It is one in a series of 800 numbers used by some jewelers
If you are referring to 14kt gold plating, then yes it will look like genuine 14kt gold. Gold plating is designed to produce the look of gold and it is very effective because it is a layer of real gold covering. There are a few ways you can determine if something is gold plated vs real, solid gold. #1: Use a magnet: Real gold is not magnetic. If your jewelry is attracted to the magnet, it is probably not real gold. #2: Do a visual inspection around the edges of the jewelry. If the jewelry has been worn a bit, the edges will usually wear the most. If the piece is merely gold plated, you will often see the underlying metal coming through.
a.k.14kt
Of course it is "real" - it may, or may not be considered jewellery, but if it exists, it is real.
I have a bracelet marked 14kt g.s. that I found out is gold plated.
What is 14ktce is it real?
There is Assay offices who can check gold or silver purity and give report.
No. Only if it has SS on it or 925. Usually something with "china" on it is cheap, fake, and poorly made.
Solid white gold formula worth $80.oo Dollars per gram in jewelry; the Real solid white gold 5 grams cost $400.oo Dollars to $700.oo Dollars in new jewelry!
The question i have is does Edco make any real jewelry?
it means (if you have some) that you have some very nice 23k Chinese gold i would say the best production gold out there.
If the stamp in your ring says 14KT then yes your ring is real gold. If your item doesn't look real or you have doubts you can always take it to a jewelry store to be checked out.
