Ecksand Awarded the Canadian National Mark: Certified Canadian Jewelry Craftsmanship

In an industry where origin stories are often more fiction than fact, Ecksand’s latest recognition cuts through the noise. The Montreal-based fine jewelry maison has been awarded the Canadian National Mark, an official designation granted by the Commissioner of Competition. This hallmark confirms what’s long been true: every Ecksand piece is made entirely in Canada, from gemstone sourcing to final polish.

About Ecksand

What Is the Canadian National Mark?

A Government-Backed Standard of Trust

The Canadian National Mark is a hallmark regulated under the Precious Metals Marking Act, overseen by the Commissioner of Competition. Unlike standard "Made in Canada" labels, this designation requires strict compliance with:

• Complete Canadian manufacturing
• Verified traceability of all materials
• Compliance with purity and quality standards

This mark is rare, especially in the global fine jewelry space, where loose origin claims are the norm.
