Things to Check Before Buying a Gold Jewellery
1. PURITY TO BE PRIORITY
The first step is to check for gold’s purity mark to understand its authenticity. This mark tells you the degree of purity of gold used for that piece of jewellery.
2.CONCIOUS OF COST
The karat of gold and the fluctuating market value are perhaps the most relevant factors that influence its price. Keep an eye out as its price changes everyday.
3.HAVE AN EYE ON HALLMARK
Things to look out for on your hallmarked jewellery are: the selected number with the BIS, the year of hallmark & the jeweller’s mark.
4.CHECK FOR KARAT
Gold’s purity is measured in ‘Karats’ or ‘K’. 24K refers to 100% pure gold. However, it's also available in 18kt, 14kt, 10kt.
