The Loupe seal
of approval
Investing in fine jewellery needs to be done with utter confidence, that’s why we meticulously handpick each and every piece within our collection, ensuring it not only meets our high standards but makes our hearts dance with every glance. So, here are some of the hallmarks you might find on your new Loupe jewellery.
Assay Office
We fully support the British hallmarking system and registering with the Assay Office means all of our precious metal jewellery is compliant with the UK’s hallmarking regulations. As part of our legal requirement and for your reassurance, all hallmarks will be present at the point of sale.
The Assay Office, for those of you who might not know, is where jewellery and silverware are hallmarked. And, as part of the Beaverbrooks the Jewellers Group we work with all UK Assay Offices, so you’ll see the stamp of the relevant assay office on our jewellery and rings.
The Loupe logo
On every piece of jewellery in the Loupe collections, you will find the Loupe logo laser engraved, so you can rest easy in the knowledge that your new favourite ring, necklace, bracelet or pair of earrings has won over the hearts of our curators while also ticking all the boxes on quality. And of course, ensuring it’s worthy of the Loupe name.
Standard mark
Demonstrating the purity of the precious metal content, with a Loupe piece you should look out for hallmarks for 18ct Gold which is stamped as 750 (because there are 750 parts per 1000 by weight, but we don’t need to tell you that, do we?) and Platinum, stamped as 950, so you can rest easy in the knowledge that quality is always assured.
The Sponsor’s mark
As an added touch you will find the Loupe sponsor’s mark or an upper case ‘L’ and lower case ‘o’ within a circle on all our carefully curated jewellery and rings. We like to think of it as the Loupe stamp of approval.
Diamond Certificate
Our Diamond Buyer, Chloe Adlestone, handpicks each and every diamond that forms the Loupe collections. So, with each diamond ring and piece of diamond jewellery, you'll receive a diamond certificate signed by her. The certificate confirms all the information you need to know about your new piece but, what you should also know, is that each exquisite diamond has taken Chloe and the Loupe team through all the emotions; curiosity, passion and excitement. After all, that’s what makes a Loupe diamond so special.
Dealer’s Notice
This is a notice that explains the current and approved hallmarks and is produced by the British Hallmarking Council. The Hallmarking Act 1973 made it a requirement for all places that sell precious metal jewellery to have it on display, so here’s ours…
