How to recognize a real 925 silver frame: a practical guide to avoid being misled

 Discover the 5 signs of a genuine 925 silver frame. Avoid scams, choose only hallmarked and certified products. True elegance is signed SEC OF FLORENCE.

In the world of silver, not everything that shines is valuable. More and more customers are faced with frames that look noble but contain not even a gram of real silver.

Some companies (without naming them) write “Silver 999” or even “Silver 925” on inner cards, without the frame being hallmarked. In many cases, it’s anodized aluminum with a microscopic silver vapor layer, or plastic/resin with a silver look, sold as if it were precious.

⚠️ Two traps to avoid

1. The elegant scam of “Silver 999”

2. The fraud of “Silver 925” on paper, without a hallmark

✅ The 5 signs of an authentic frame

1. “925” hallmark engraved on the metal

2. Manufacturer’s code (e.g. “★1174 FI”)

3. Mahogany wood back

4. Handcrafted finish

5. Invisible anti-tarnish treatment
