Metal Testing Services
Metal Testing
At Shiva Bullion, accuracy is the foundation of every service we offer. Our Metal Testing process allows you to know exactly what your gold, silver, or jewelry items are made of — with clear, reliable results you can trust. Backed by the heritage of Shiva Jewelers and generations of experience, we combine traditional expertise with modern technology to deliver precise metal identification. Understanding the true composition of your items is essential, whether you’re preparing to sell, insure, or appraise them. Our testing helps determine:
- Metal purity (karat or fineness)
- Alloy composition
- Authenticity of bullion coins and bars
- Presence of non-precious metals
- Verification for damaged or unmarked jewelry
