This robust metal stamp precisely inscribes "STERLING" onto your silver pieces, fulfilling UK hallmarking requirements with a single, confident strike.

What it does

Engineered for clean, deep impressions, this straight punch bar transfers the "STERLING" mark directly onto your metal. Its hardened steel construction ensures the raised characters remain sharp through repeated use, delivering a consistent, legible debossed mark on sheet, wire, or finished items. The balanced design focuses hammer force for optimal striking efficiency.

How to use it

  • Position the stamp firmly on your workpiece.
  • Strike the punch squarely with a jewellery hammer.
  • Wipe clean after use for longevity.

Who it's for

Essential for UK silversmiths and jewellers needing to legally mark their sterling silver creations. This tool streamlines the hallmarking process, replacing less precise methods. It's also ideal for advanced jewellery students and serious hobbyists seeking professional-standard results for their work.

Customer Reviews (4.4 / 5 · 5 reviews)

Sebastian ★★★★★

I was worried about mis-striking the letters, but the bar's alignment guide kept everything perfectly straight. The impression came out deep and crisp with just a single solid whack from my hammer.

Sofia ★★★★★

Took a steady hand and one firm tap, and the word came out sharp and perfectly aligned—no double-striking needed to fix a shallow mark. It’s hefty enough that I didn’t worry about it wobbling mid-hit, and the lettering is crisp on my first pendant. Exactly what I needed for the UK hallmarking.

Kevin A. ★★★★☆

Took a few practice taps on scrap to get the angle right, but once I did, the single strike left a proper deep mark on my silver band. It's weighty and solid in the hand, which gives me confidence it'll last through heavy use.
