Ease of use while testing jewelry. High quality. Value for your money. I will be making more purchases from this company. They put a little thank you letter that brightened my day.I

I'm a total newbie to this stuff. Using the instruction sheet that came with the kit, plus, watching some youtube video's, I got a 'feel' for the testing process. So far, so good. I have been able to determine both silver and gold content. One note to the company that sent me the kit (Bella Findings House).... the bottle of silver testing acid needed to be poked with a needle. The bottle nozzle was either sealed or clogged. IOW, when I tried to squeeze a drop of acid onto the stone, NOTHING! A simple needle poke opened the nozzle. The other 5 bottles didn't have this minor issue. A few comments I can add to those getting into the 'metal testing' process. Consider getting a large stone. The stone I received with this kit is 2" x 2". It works fine, but, I'd prefer to have a larger stone. With a larger stone you can do more tests without acids running into each other. Also, think about buying either testing needles or small files. Reasons: you may want to test jewelry without making a visible mark on the item. Using a file you can create exposed metal in an inconspicuous area and drop the acid into this area -- versus rubbing your jewelry onto hard stone creating a visible mark on your beloved item. Testing needles seems to be a good idea as well to get your 'testing' chops together.
