Gold Silver Jewelry Tester Appraisal Kit 10K 14K 18K 22K 24K Platinum Palladium Test Precious Metals 999 925 Scrap

Like most families we have a few bits and pieces of jewelry, unpaired earrings, broken chains, etc. that have little value before but with the price of gold at all time high they are now worth testing and selling. The test kit is excellent, the solutions fresh and works great; at least for the gold which I used. I am assuming the same is true with the silver and platinum solutions. I’m not a jeweler but the kit is easy to use and seems to do what it is designed for which is all that matters. The price is very reasonable and the delivery was very prompt.

Great test kit for gold and silver. Easy to use, but be careful with the chemicals, need to use gloves! The bottles are pretty sturdy even though they're plastic. These are good sizes that can be used several times for testing.

Very Good & easy to use

The gold tests work as they should which is great! Unfortunately it seems as though the silver one doesn't. When I tried, the color of the solution turned a yellow color on things I knew were sterling silver. I still think it's a great product for being reasonably priced.

Works well

It was just what I wanted

I was a bit disappointed in this product. We have bought acids from them before, but the 18K did not perform as previous bought. The Silver Acid is shown to be red in the instruction manual. However, when you use it on a black stone, the color does not show up. Perhaps instead of sending two black stones, maybe one should be white, so that the colors show up better. It does if you use it directly on the product itself. I prefer not to do that as acid has a tendency to leave a mark if the item is not good. This does have effect on costume jewelry and can ruin a piece. However, it did work for 10K and 14K. The stones also are different from our original stone and I feel it doesn't quit react as well. It has a slightly soft top layer and I am used to a solid hard layer. I was also expecting larger stones, but that was my fault for not reading closer. I will keep this kit as a backup for when I travel, but will still use my regular stone at home. I did like the variety of acids, which had some I never had before. It is ok for a starter set.

everything was just as it was described.
