The jewellery without any joining, soldering or layers is recognized as solid jewellery. There are several pieces of jewellery that come into this category such as a Gold Ring, Gold Bangle, Gold Kada, etc.

 

The valuation process for solid jewellery differs from another jewellery type. For the evaluation of solid jewellery, a skin test is conducted with the help of XRF laser machine. This helps to find the real purity of a jewellery item.
