Every piece carries
its own record
Each work by Guild 79 is issued a unique provenance certificate: a physical document bearing the collection site, the composition of the piece, and the specific edition it records.
The certificate carries a signed attestation from the studio and a QR code linking to the digital record. Each edition has its own unique token. Scan the certificate and your numeral is highlighted among the total editions, marking the piece as yours.
Provenance is not a feature. It is the foundation of every piece we make. The place, its history, and the studio that shaped the piece are recorded on its certificate.

Independently graded
Our Certificate of Provenance tells you where a piece comes from and which edition you hold. An independent grading report tells you, objectively, what its stones are.
Stones of note are sent to an independent gemological laboratory such as GIA or HRD Antwerp and graded on their own merits: carat, colour, clarity, cut, and proportions, assessed by people with no stake in the sale. Where a piece holds more than one such stone, each is graded in its own right, and where a report is issued it travels with the piece, beside our own certificate.
The example below is shown for illustration only. Each stone's report carries its own number, and that number stays with you.
