The short answer: You can verify the BIS hallmark on Celestora’s 925 sterling silver Cuban chain by checking the hallmark stamp engraved on the product and confirming it through the BIS Care mobile app or website. Every Celestora piece is officially certified for 92.5% purity and authenticated by a BIS-approved laboratory in India.
What Is a BIS Hallmark and Why It Matters
The BIS hallmark is India’s official certification for purity in precious metals like gold and silver. Introduced by the Bureau of Indian Standards (BIS), it assures that the jewelry you purchase meets national quality standards. In simple terms, if your silver jewelry carries a BIS hallmark, you can trust that it’s made from genuine sterling silver—nothing less.
For Celestora, hallmarking isn’t just a requirement—it’s a promise. Every Celestora silver chain, Cuban bracelet, or jewelry item is tested and hallmarked under strict BIS supervision to ensure the highest level of purity and craftsmanship.
Understanding Celestora Hallmark Silver
Celestora uses only 925 sterling silver, meaning 92.5% of the metal is pure silver, while the remaining 7.5% is a strengthening alloy like copper. This combination provides durability without compromising brilliance. Each Celestora Cuban chain is therefore not only luxurious but also built to last.
When you see the BIS 925 mark on a Celestora chain, you’re looking at an official assurance of quality from the Indian government. This hallmark is engraved in a subtle yet visible spot—usually near the clasp or inner section of the jewelry—so it doesn’t interfere with the design but remains easy to identify.
1. The Four Marks of BIS Hallmark Silver
Every Celestora hallmark silver product includes four distinct components within the stamp:
- BIS Logo: The symbol of the Bureau of Indian Standards, ensuring official certification.
- Purity Grade (925): Confirms 92.5% pure silver composition.
- Assay Centre Mark: Identifies the BIS-approved testing laboratory.
- Jeweler’s Identification Mark: The unique registration code for Celestora, traceable in BIS records.
Together, these marks serve as a permanent record of authenticity, linking your jewelry directly to BIS-approved testing documentation.
How to Verify the BIS Hallmark on Your Celestora Cuban Chain
Verification is quick, simple, and entirely digital. Here’s how you can confirm the authenticity of your Celestora Cuban chain or bracelet in less than two minutes.
Step 1: Locate the Hallmark Stamp
Look closely at your Celestora jewelry—most hallmarks are engraved near the clasp or inner surface. You’ll see the BIS logo, purity number (925), and Celestora’s identification code. Use a magnifying glass or smartphone camera to spot the stamp clearly.
Step 2: Use the BIS Care App
The Bureau of Indian Standards has an official mobile app called BIS Care (available on Android and iOS). Open the app and select “Verify Hallmark.” Enter the jeweler’s code from your chain’s stamp—this is Celestora’s unique BIS registration ID. The app will instantly display verification details, confirming the jeweler name, metal type, and purity level.
Step 3: Check Online Through the BIS Portal
If you prefer using a computer, visit the official BIS hallmark verification website (manakonline.in). Enter Celestora’s jeweler ID in the hallmark search field. Within seconds, you’ll see confirmation of the jeweler’s authenticity and certification validity period.
Why Celestora Prioritizes Hallmarking
Celestora was built on trust, transparency, and timeless design. Hallmarking ensures that every customer receives genuine silver jewelry—not silver-plated imitations. With the increasing demand for premium silver chains and bracelets in India, hallmarking serves as a critical benchmark for quality assurance.
By maintaining a zero-tolerance policy toward unverified silver, Celestora protects customers from counterfeit products and guarantees long-lasting value. Each hallmark 925 silver chain undergoes advanced X-ray fluorescence testing before being engraved with the BIS seal of approval.
2. 925 Sterling Silver India Standards
In India, 925 sterling silver is the globally recognized standard for fine silver jewelry. It offers the ideal combination of purity and durability, making it perfect for everyday accessories like the Cuban bracelet or the classic Celestora chain. BIS hallmarking confirms that your jewelry meets international standards for silver purity while complying with Indian certification norms.
Celestora’s adherence to 925 purity ensures that every chain feels substantial, looks radiant, and retains its beauty for years with minimal care.
Spotting Authentic Hallmarked Silver vs Fake Marks
Unfortunately, counterfeit hallmark stamps have become common in unregulated markets. Here’s how to spot the difference between genuine and fake hallmarks:
- Authentic hallmarks are laser-engraved with sharp edges and consistent alignment.
- Fake hallmarks often look shallow, uneven, or hand-stamped.
- Genuine BIS marks include all four identifiers (logo, purity, jeweler code, assay mark).
- Most importantly, you can verify authentic marks through the BIS Care app instantly.
Celestora ensures complete traceability through its BIS registration, so you can always confirm authenticity before or after your purchase.
3. Why Verification Builds Long-Term Trust
Verifying your BIS hallmark takes less than a minute, yet it guarantees lifetime confidence in your jewelry. Celestora encourages every customer to verify their jewelry’s hallmark as part of their ownership experience—it’s a small step that reinforces a big value: trust.
This culture of transparency makes Celestora one of the few jewelry brands in India where every product sold online or offline carries complete traceability and certification proof.
