In a more general sense, the term hallmark can also be used to refer to any distinguishing characteristic. It is a stamp to certify quality.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Hallmarks are often confused with \"trademarks\" or \"maker's marks\". A hallmark is not the mark of a manufacturer to distinguish his products from other manufacturers' products: that is the function of trademarks or makers' marks. To be a true hallmark, it must be the guarantee of an independent body or authority that the contents are as marked. Thus, a stamp of '925' by itself is not, strictly speaking, a hallmark, but is rather an unattested fineness mark.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Hallmarking started in the 1300\u2019s and is the oldest form of quality control.<br \/>\nThere are currently four Assay Offices in the UK (London, Birmingham, Sheffield, Edinburgh) and overseen by the British hallmarking Council. The oldest Assay Offices are working from Royal Charters (London and Edinburgh).<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><div id=\"panel-1371-0-0-1\" class=\"so-panel widget widget_media_image\" data-index=\"1\" ><div style=\"text-align: center;\" data-title-color=\"#443f3f\" data-headings-color=\"#443f3f\" class=\"panel-widget-style panel-widget-style-for-1371-0-0-1\" ><a href=\"https:\/\/www.assayofficelondon.co.uk\/about-us\/history-of-hallmarking\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"417\" height=\"168\" src=\"http:\/\/nicholaswinton.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/hallmark_guide_assay_offices1.jpg\" class=\"image wp-image-1349  attachment-full size-full\" alt=\"\" style=\"max-width: 100%; height: auto;\" srcset=\"http:\/\/nicholaswinton.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/hallmark_guide_assay_offices1.jpg 417w, http:\/\/nicholaswinton.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/hallmark_guide_assay_offices1-230x93.jpg 230w, http:\/\/nicholaswinton.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/hallmark_guide_assay_offices1-350x141.jpg 350w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 417px) 100vw, 417px\" \/><\/a><\/div><\/div><div id=\"panel-1371-0-0-2\" class=\"so-panel widget widget_sow-editor\" data-index=\"2\" ><div style=\"text-align: left;\" data-title-color=\"#443f3f\" data-headings-color=\"#443f3f\" class=\"panel-widget-style panel-widget-style-for-1371-0-0-2\" ><div\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\tclass=\"so-widget-sow-editor so-widget-sow-editor-base\"\n\t\t\t\n\t\t>\n<div class=\"siteorigin-widget-tinymce textwidget\">\n\t<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Nicholas Winton Sponsor's Mark<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><div id=\"panel-1371-0-0-3\" class=\"so-panel widget widget_media_image\" data-index=\"3\" ><div style=\"text-align: center;\" data-title-color=\"#443f3f\" data-headings-color=\"#443f3f\" class=\"panel-widget-style panel-widget-style-for-1371-0-0-3\" ><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"84\" height=\"84\" src=\"http:\/\/nicholaswinton.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/NW-Hallmark@2x-150x150.png\" class=\"image wp-image-254  attachment-84x84 size-84x84\" alt=\"\" style=\"max-width: 100%; height: auto;\" srcset=\"http:\/\/nicholaswinton.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/NW-Hallmark@2x-150x150.png 150w, http:\/\/nicholaswinton.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/NW-Hallmark@2x-314x314.png 314w, http:\/\/nicholaswinton.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/NW-Hallmark@2x-500x500.png 500w, http:\/\/nicholaswinton.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/NW-Hallmark@2x-400x400.png 400w, http:\/\/nicholaswinton.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/NW-Hallmark@2x-200x200.png 200w, http:\/\/nicholaswinton.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/NW-Hallmark@2x.png 1024w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 84px) 100vw, 84px\" \/><\/div><\/div><div id=\"panel-1371-0-0-4\" class=\"so-panel widget widget_sow-editor panel-last-child\" data-index=\"4\" ><div style=\"text-align: center;\" id=\"hallmarking\" data-title-color=\"#443f3f\" data-headings-color=\"#443f3f\" class=\"panel-widget-style panel-widget-style-for-1371-0-0-4\" ><div\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\tclass=\"so-widget-sow-editor so-widget-sow-editor-base\"\n\t\t\t\n\t\t>\n<div class=\"siteorigin-widget-tinymce textwidget\">\n\t<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Nicholas Winton offers clients the opportunity to register their own mark.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A hallmark is an official mark or series of marks struck on items made of metal, mostly to certify the content of noble metals\u2014such as platinum, gold, silver and in some nations, palladium.
