I have a 14 kp white gold men's diamond wedding band with the markings
"artcrest" and 14kp on the inside of the band. It was purchased in
1983. I am trying to get info on the manufacturer and what alloys where
used and if it was plated. I have searched but can find no mention of
who made artcrest rings in the 1980's. Any help would be appreciated.

The p at the end of 14kp means plated.

I searched US trademarks and came up with this:

but it may not be the company you mean. Not all companies have
trademarks.
