Jewelers frequently exploit this market, offering counterfeit sterling silver at the cost of genuine sterling silver. Here we shall look at a few check points that will help you identify counterfeit 925 sterling silver jewelry wholesale. • Purity Level Authentic 925 sterling silver ought to be no less than 92.5% pure silver. Purity level is typically shown by a ".925" etched on the jewelry. Check for this stamp on the back of silver pendants, inside rings and on clasps. • Neodymium Magnet Check whether your silver jewelry is attracted to a neodymium magnet. If you find that your jewelry sticks to the magnet, it is fairly obvious that the jewelry isn't sterling silver. • Cloth Test Gently rub a delicate white piece of cloth on your jewelry. An authentic 925 Sterling silver jewelry would oxidize, while coming in contact with air and form black marks on the piece of white cloth. If the piece is not genuine, then there would be no markings on the cloth. • Trademark Stamps Like Gold, genuine silver ought to have a small hallmark stamp or engraving.

If a stamp reads "EPNS" that is "Electro plated nickel silver" signifies that the jewelry is authentic.

  3. • Nitric Acid Test Another approach to spot your counterfeit sterling silver jewelry is to test it in Nitric acid. On an unnoticeable part of your jewelry, remove the surface coating first by rubbing the area thoroughly. Then place 2 to 3 drops of nitric acid in that area and hold up for a couple of minutes. If the liquid turns green, then the jewelry is not sterling silver but is silver plated. However, if the liquid turns gray, then the item is sterling silver. • Silver Plated Jewelry Look for "A1" engravings on silver jewelry as they are simply silver plated and not genuine sterling silver.
