Hallmarks
Welcome to the Hallmarks Education Hub
At DSF Antique Jewelry, we believe every piece of antique jewelry holds a secret—and hallmarks are the clues that help us uncover its story. Whether you're exploring Victorian rings, Georgian silver, or French Art Nouveau designs, hallmarks reveal the metal’s purity, place of origin, date of manufacture, and often the maker’s identity.
This guide is your starting point to understanding these fascinating marks and becoming a more confident collector, investor, or enthusiast.
Explore our hallmark guides below to learn how to identify authentic antique jewelry through its stamps and engravings.
