Understanding 'RCT' Markings on White Gold Chains - What Does It Mean?


Question
Hi I have a white gold chain with RCT 14K on the chain. I was wondering what the rct stands for? Thank you for your time.

Answer
Nina,

The RCT is probably a reference to the manufacturer.  Many manufacturers put their logo or initials on their pieces to identify their work for warranty purposes.  I see this on chains more than anything since chain styles are universal and a manufacturer would not be able to identify their own goods unless they had some type of identification mark of their own.

Have a great day!
