DISCLAIMER: Vintage and antique pieces often test 1 to 2
karats lower than what they are stamped because of manufacturing methods and
regulations at the time it was made. We use standard gold testing equipment to
test all of our pieces, but Ebay authentication uses advanced x-ray equipment to get an exact read. Therefore, it
is possible that Ebay authentication’s x-ray of the item will come up as
anywhere from 12k-14k gold when it is stamped 14k. Please feel free to reach
out to us with any questions.
