Portuguese Assay Office Marks
The parts available in the dprata.com online store are certified by INCM and legally marked, when applicable.
“The INCM Assay Offices provide this guarantee by verifying the legal touch (per thousand of precious metal contained in an alloy) and applying the hallmark together with the responsibility mark, manufacturer mark or equivalent”.
The application of marks is only mandatory on pieces weighing more than 1 gram.
For any questions about the authenticity of the brands, we have made the INCM website available for verification: https://www.incm.pt/portal/uco_marcas.jsp
