Hallmarking and the Assay Office

Hallmarking and the Assay Office

Neena Kay Jewellery is registered with the Birmingham Assay Office (013722).

In the UK, it is illegal to see or describe any item that is gold, silver, platinum or palladium over specific weights unless it has been hallmarked and verified.

Assay Assured status was made to protect customers from being caught out and buying substandard metals.

All Neena Kay silver jewellery over 7.78 grammes and gold jewellery over 1 grammes is scientifically tested by the Assay Office and hallmarked to comply with the legal requirements for selling precious metals in the UK.  

So you are aware of the assay status for each piece, its weight and hallmark status can be found on the product page.

The dealers notice, below, must be displayed as a legal requirement. It is your reassurance that your jewellery has passed the rigid standards required for hallmarking.
