<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Barn Owl, post: 851921, member: 4864&quot;]That&#039;s a great chart. So it&#039;s possible that the dragon bangle is between .800 and .925. I&#039;ll follow Kyratango&#039;s advice and get a white stone; mine is black, which makes it difficult to even make out the sterling marks. I have a .999 bar, too, which I can test so I&#039;ll have a solid idea of the color range.</p><p><br /></p><p>The info sheet the seller provided with my kit also recommended filing it and testing directly on the file mark, so that the jewelry would change color. Ugh.</p><p><br /></p><p>Thank you so much, AJ! That is absolutely fascinating. I love when my jewelry turns out to be of different origin than I had initially expected, especially pieces with such rich history as this. This is going to take me down a Google rabbit hole.</p><p><br /></p><p>Now that I&#039;ve purchased a new loupe with a bright light, I&#039;ll search the bangle for tiny hallmarks. I&#039;ll let you know if I find any.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
