Item details and appraisal notes
On a 999 pure gold bracelet, fineness, actual gold weight and the day's reference gold price remain separate. Examine the bracelet as received: a 999 hallmark is useful evidence, while its clasp, extension chain, links, jump rings, solder joints and any detachable or non-gold parts affect the weight calculation.
999 pure gold bracelet: structure and measurements
| Item | What to show |
|---|---|
| Object type | Bracelet |
| Construction | Clasp, extension chain, links, jump rings and visible solder joints |
| Measurements | Overall length, link width and gross weight |
| Separate components | Tag, pendant or other part already designed to detach |
| Purity boundary | “999 pure gold” is a stated claim. Confirm the hallmark and fineness through appropriate testing, and distinguish gross weight from confirmed gold weight. |
Checking the bracelet in its original construction
Clasp and links: Photograph the bracelet laid out naturally, then show the clasp, extension chain, links, jump rings and each visible solder joint. Add a close view of the hallmark without polishing the surrounding surface.
Size and weight: Measure the total length and link width. Photograph the gross scale reading with the unit visible, then weigh only pieces that were already detachable, such as a tag or pendant; never cut or open a soldered connection.
Wear and repairs: Keep scratches, dents, distortion, breaks, drill holes, later solder and polishing visible. Note whether paperwork survives, and describe the bracelet from its hallmark, construction, measurements and current condition.
Safe photography before testing
Take separate images of the complete bracelet, hallmark, gross weight, clasp, extension chain, packaging and accessories. Do not polish, repair or dismantle it. Preserving the original joints is essential when assessing wear and actual gold weight.
What may change the weight calculation
Clasp and worn areas: Mark a loose clasp, stretched link, missing part, distortion or heavy wear before weighing. A later solder joint should be shown rather than filed or cleaned.
Fineness evidence: Read the hallmark clearly, then compare it with the result of appropriate testing and the bracelet's overall construction. A stamp alone does not establish 999 fineness.
Gross and net weight: Weigh the bracelet as received, excluding only packaging. List any clearly non-gold or already detachable part so gross weight is not mistaken for actual gold weight.
Gold appraisal and handover guidance

Questions before an appraisal
What should you check before selling?
What matters depends on the item. Photograph both sides, the edge, hallmarks or base marks, and any damage. Include the original box, certificate or weight information where relevant so we can decide whether an in-person inspection is needed.
