What does 10K SR on the band of a ring mean?

Answer 1

Oh, dude, 10K SR on a ring band means it's made of 10 karat gold with SR likely standing for "gold-filled" or "rolled gold." It's like the ring's way of saying, "Hey, I may not be 24 karat, but I'm still pretty cool." So, yeah, it's basically a fancy way of saying, "I'm not solid gold, but I'll do the job."

Answer 2

10K SR on the band of a ring typically indicates that the ring is made of 10 karat gold with a specific type of finish known as satin or sandblasted finish. The "SR" likely stands for "satin finish" or "sandblasted finish," indicating the texture or appearance of the metal. This marking helps identify the metal content and finish of the ring for consumers and jewelers.

Answer 3

10K SR means solid 10K gold with SR as the manufacturer's mark.

10K gold is 10/24 gold and 14/24 other alloying metals (usually copper and nickle)

Some might say that the SR means "silver", but standard nomenclature would be .925 or sterling or some percentage, indicating the type of silver or percentage silver. But not just silver. It wouldn't make sense not giving you the alloy amount. Having cut open a ring to re-size with 10K SR stamped on it , there is no silver inside the ring. It is good to be cautious. Get a guarantee. And if you are still in doubt, maybe have another jeweler resize it. (They'll tell you if it's plated or not.)

However if the ring indicated an alloy of silver base metal, the plating would wear over time. Some jewelers ( Whitehall as an example) will offer a plan that will cover 2 years worth of re-plating. After that, you're on your own. On a white gold ring, it won't be as noticeable but the sterling will have a less dull shine than the plating. As always with Sterling, keep it in a small ziplock bag to keep it from turning when not in use.
