Understanding 5925 Jewelry Markings: What Does It Mean?

The number "5925" on jewelry typically indicates that the piece is made of 14-karat white gold.

Here's the breakdown:

* 5: Indicates that the metal composition contains gold, with .5 indicating half of the composition or 50%

* 925: This usually indicates that the base metal is 92.5% silver.

Since jewelry marked "5925" also contains other alloys, the exact composition depends on the manufacturer.

In short, 5925 is most likely a mark indicating that the jewelry is made of 14K gold with .925 silver.
