925 Mark on Gold Bracelet: Sterling Silver or Gold?


Question
I just received a sapphire with tiny diamonds gold bracelet from my mom that used to be my grandmother's. I found a 925 PAJ CHINA marked on the clasp of the bracelet. I just read from a website that 925 is sterling silver. I am now confused as to whether if my bracelet is actually gold or silver.

Answer
Marie-
It appears that it is sterling silver and the diamonds,if they are diamonds, may only be small commercial single cuts, or in layman's terms "CHIPS". Not worth very much, but does have sentimental value...enjoy it with good health
all the best
