At Diamonds Factory all our products are hallmarked as per UK hallmarking law from London Assay Office (The GoldSmith Company)
The Goldsmiths' Company Assay Office is the oldest assay office in the United Kingdom. It has provided hallmarking services since The Goldsmiths' Company was founded in the 1300s. The company received its royal charter in 1327 and ranks 5th in order of precedence of the 12 Great Livery Companies of the City of London.
Hallmarking dates back to the 1300s when Edward I of England passed a law requiring any item made of silver, which was offered for sale, to be at least of equal quality as that of the coin of the realm (silver currency). The wardens of The Goldsmiths' Company were tasked with visiting workshops in the City of London to assay (test) silver articles. If these articles were found to be below standard they were originally destroyed and the metal forfeited to the King. If they passed, each article received the King's mark of authentication - the mark of a leopard's head. By 1478, there were several hundred workshops and merchants manufacturing silver articles in the City of London. It was not possible for the wardens to visit them all so the merchants were ordered to bring their items to Goldsmiths' Hall for testing and marking and a permanent Assay Office was established in the building. This is the origin of the term hallmark - struck with the King's mark at Goldsmiths' Hall.
In 1544 the Goldsmith's Company adopted the King's mark as their town mark and the mark of the leopard's head is now internationally recognised as the mark of this assay office.
The Goldsmiths's Company Assay Office is still based at Goldsmiths's Hall and remains the oldest company in Britain to be continually trading from the same site. However, it also has two satellite offices; at Greville Street in Hatton Garden in the heart of the London jewellery quarter and within a high security complex near London's Heathrow airport. It now has a new off-site facility within the Dalston-based jewellery manufacturer, Allied Gold. This is the first time in the Assay Office's 700 year history that it has opened permanent hallmarking services on a customer's premises.
In addition to hallmarking, the office has now expanded its range of services to support the jewellery trade and enforcement authorities. It offers a variety of specialist analytical services including nickel, lead & cadmium testing, antique silver dating, non-destructive compositional analysis, plating thickness measurement and a melt and assay service for scrap precious metal carried out in their fully independent on-site laboratory. Other services offered are a jewellery valuation service, laser marking, trading standards assistance, high quality photography and a comprehensive range of training and educational seminars, lectures and specialist events.
Halo earrings are exquisite pieces of jewellery known for their captivating beauty and dazzling appeal. These diamond earrings feature a larger central gemstone encircled by smaller accent stones, creating a radiant halo effect that enhances the overall brilliance. By delving into the world of halo earrings and exploring their unique qualities we see why they continue to captivate jewellery enthusiasts around the world.
Discovering halo earrings
Halo earrings, a celebrated jewellery trend, have garnered immense popularity and for good reason. They are a testament to the artistry and craftsmanship that goes into creating fine jewellery. The central gemstone, often a diamond, takes centre stage, surrounded by a halo of smaller diamonds or gemstones that amplify its beauty. The result is a dazzling display of light and sparkle that draws attention and admiration.
Why choose diamond halo earrings?
When it comes to choosing jewellery that stands out, diamond halo earrings are an excellent choice. These earrings offer several unique qualities that set them apart from other earring styles.
The brilliance of halo settings
One of the key reasons to opt for diamond halo earrings is the brilliance of their settings. The smaller diamonds surrounding the central stone reflect and refract light, creating a stunning play of sparkle and fire. This setting maximises the beauty of each diamond, making the earrings truly dazzling.
The illusion of size
Halo earrings also create a fascinating optical illusion. The surrounding halo of diamonds makes the central gemstone appear larger than it actually is. This effect adds to the overall impact of the earrings and makes them an excellent choice for those who want a bold and impressive look.
Unveiling aesthetic halo designs
In addition to their brilliance, diamond halo earrings come in a wide range of artistic and aesthetic jewellery designs. Whether you prefer a classic and timeless style or a more modern and avant-garde look, there's a halo earring design that suits your taste. These earrings are not just pieces of jewellery; they are works of art that can be customised to reflect your unique style.
Choosing the perfect halo earring shape
When it comes to choosing the perfect halo earring shape, it's not just about aesthetics – it's about enhancing your individuality. The right halo earring shape can complement your face shape and resonate with your style preferences, elevating your overall look to its full potential. Whether you favor the beauty of a round halo or the distinctive charm of a pear-shaped design, each shape tells a different story. Let your halo earrings be a reflection of your personal narrative and style.
Personalising your style with halo earrings
Personalisation is key when choosing diamond halo earrings. Consider factors like the shape of the central stone, the metal used, and any additional design elements that resonate with your personal style. Whether you prefer a classic round halo or a unique pear-shaped design, your earrings should reflect your individuality.
Elevate your look with dazzling jewellery
Incorporating halo earrings into your jewellery collection is an effective way to elevate your overall look. These dazzling pieces not only complement your attire but also enhance your confidence and radiance. Whether you wear them for a special occasion or as part of your everyday style, diamond halo earrings are sure to leave a lasting impression.
Diamond halo earrings are a true marvel in the world of jewellery. Whether you're drawn to their brilliance, the illusion of size they create, or the variety of aesthetic jewellery designs available, diamond halo earrings are a symbol of elegance and sophistication that will continue to shine for generations to come.
