Methods To Determine A Genuine Diamond From A Impostor

Brought to you by buy cushion cut diamond solitaire engagement rings.

Let us be specific and brief. Get a professional to check up a diamond and find out if it is a real one. With new better fake diamonds available, it is more and more difficult to identify a real diamond even for a professional with a jewelers’ loupes.

These are some hard rules to follow. Always examine the stamp inside of the band which will tell you how many karats it is and this will increase your chances of making a legitimate deal.

You can closely watch and observe the corners, edges and girdle-band of the cut stone, with the help of a handy magnifying glass or a jeweler’s loupe One way to tell if it is not real is to look at the edges, if they appear soft and have a rolled appearance than you can be sure it is a fake. You can also achieve this effect using a clear, smooth girdle at the junction of the facets around the heart of the stone.

Use a jeweler’s loupe to check the stone for minute fractures, little flecks, and inclusions. These can be very difficult to imitate because they are created naturally and they are very unique. Natural diamonds are worth the most when they are flawless and diamonds with minor flaws are not easily seen by most consumers.

Generally, weight may be utilized as a normal indicator for those types of things. Simulated diamonds have a significantly different weight than an authentic diamond; cubic zirconium is much heavier. With a few diamonds and a professional quality scale, you can do some tests to compare the different cuts and quality.

Never try to scratch glass using your diamond. When checking jewelry for content do not use acid tests primarily used on metals. If you smash a diamond it will crush like any other crystalline substance.  Just fog the stone. A pure diamond shifts the heat very fast to clear the stone before you can see it. Thats a small hint, no more, and its far from fail proof. Be careful about composition diamonds, which have a base of one material and a table top made of diamonds, this will pass a diamond tester, but be relatively worthless.

Always remember to have a professional appraisal done so that you’ll know the diamond isn’t a fake. You must not only choose your jewelers but also ask for documentation of each gem. (stones are individual and documentation goes a long way in establishing its nature). To get a correct and fair appraisal, a professional jeweler, can be a reliable and helpful source, as long as he has good sources for his information. 

Think very carefully before going to a chain jeweler for an appraisal, which is not meant as an insult to them. Businesses such as these demonstrate the pros and cons of ass produced distribution and manufacturing. Chain jewelry stores while competent in themselves still will not give you the expertise of a higher end store or assessment business.

Make sure to take the time to learn the background, licensing, and experience of the assessor after checking online or in the yellow pages for advertisements. The best indicators of a skilled jeweler, is someone who is licensed, a journeyman from a traditional trade program, or someone who used to be a stone dealer.

Request that you be allowed to observe the testing of any stone you bring in. to avoid unscrupulous jewelers changing it out  . Turn around and walk right back out if you are refused. Request complete documentation if purchasing a stone. To know the real diamond is very difficult and even professionals think twice and look three times.
