Is 10K Italy real gold?
1 Answer
Yes, 10K Italy may be real gold. Pieces that display this mark are usually made in workshops and factories based in Italy out of 10-karat gold. 10-karat gold is a gold alloy made of 41.7% gold and 58.3% base metals, so the 10K marking does indicate a piece is real gold. However, "Italy" hallmarks are a popular choice for counterfeiters to add to their jewelry. As a result, you may wish to seek the opinion of a certified appraiser or knowledgeable jeweler. On 1stDibs, find a selection of gold jewelry.
