Understanding Gold Ring Markings: What Does 'GZ' Mean?


Question
Hello there! I have a ring with the markings GZ and 14k engraved inside. I think I understand what 14k means but am a bit confused about the GZ...

Answer
Hello Lailani and thank you for your inquiry. The 14K means that the ring is 14K gold.  The GZ mark could be the manufacturer/designer of the ring. I have checked my resources and found no listing for a mark GZ. It is also possible that the mark is the initials of the original owner if the ring is vintage. If you know the source of the ring, it might be easier to locate a manufacturer.  Hope this helps and enjoy your ring !
