Ring of Petals with Face in the Center Hallmark
by: Yvonne

Maharba,
Thanks for reaching out, so glad you found us!
What a lovely bangle! That "flower-face" mark is a classic Italian gold assay mark used from the 1930s-1980s.

The ring of petals with a woman's face in the center was Italy's way of marking gold.
If you look very closely near that mark, you should find a tiny number:
- 585 = 14k
- 750 = 18k

Italian jewelry often only had this one mark + sometimes a maker’s mark. The fact that it didn’t stick to a magnet is another good sign.

Your acid test will confirm the karat, but based on the mark and style, this is very likely authentic Italian gold. A lovely piece!

With care,
Yvonne
