I just checked with Nico Uytterhaegen and he said he don't use Alpaca no more, he's been using sterling silver since 2 seasons ago.

I know Nico uterryhaegen (can't spell his name for shit), uses alpaca which is a cheaper more malleable alloy.
Back to CH. Each piece is hallmarked (depending on the country it was original bought in) and has a date that the first mould was made (not necessarily the first time the item was cast). Sometimes there are two dates. This is because the original mould may have been developed an changed slightly. There is also the branding in the inside. With the chains and bracelets it would be harder to do good copies, because each link is engraved individually with .925 and the branding.

Yes there are a shitload of fakes out there. I remember seeing while cabinets full at the night markets in Seoul. Interest has been piqued in the Asian market mostly due to Big Bang and G dragon, so I've come to discover.
Dont most (or even all)of the jewellery designers tht we discuss here use .925 silver as their key material?
CH also use 22k yellow gold, white gold and platinum.

There are a huge loads of CH fakes, in fact, even real CH looks fake at times, haha!
That's why I only buy personally from CH boutique, part of the fun of tracking down a piece that I really want.

Aitor Throup skull bag black AUD$1600 shipped
She looked at me, pointed at the string of the back of my BBS jacket and said: You had the same string on the shirt you wore last time. If I'm not mistaken that's a part of a hearing aid. You have a hearing impairment, right?
