Found my first Indian gold, a pair of 23k hoop earrings hallmarked 958 which was a new one for me. They weigh almost four grams.
23k grab-bag earrings!

All the Indian from across the water gold I've seen is 22k, but I looked it up and YEP, 23K.

It took me forever to find that mark too, I thought they were a lower karat but then they tested really high & then I saw it. Now I need a necklace & some bangles to match!
