Diamond

It is carbon-based, crystalline, and makes many jewelry, adding to it an unrivaled beauty and elegance, but some make pieces similar to the original ones, which the buyer finds difficult to distinguish, but there are a number of ways diamonds can be distinguished original and imitated.

Distinguish between original and imitation diamonds

• Transparency screening test: Turn the diamond upside down, and then put it on the paper written on them, and try to look at the writing through the urgent and read the speech, if you can read the words clearly through it, it means that the piece is authentic and fake, but if you can not read it means that the piece is original, because the original diamond disperses the light.
• Test the steam: near the diamond from your mouth, and then blow it from the steam of the mouth until it consists of some fog, if the impact remains of three seconds is a fake piece, but if the fog quickly, it means that it is authentic, because the surface of the diamond is very smooth , which prevents the retention of water and steam it.
• If you find some small scratches on the edges of the surface, it means that it is a fake piece of glass, but if there are no scratches, it means that it is an original piece, because it is a very solid piece resistant to scratching and shock.
• Hardness Test: Try to scratch a glass surface, such as a mirror or cup, using one side of the sharp diamond. If there is no scratch, it means that it is a fake. If the glass is scratched, it means that it is genuine.
• Weight test: Zircon is one of the most comparable materials in weight, but it is about 55% heavier. Therefore, a piece of zircon is obtained and its weight and diamond weight are compared. If it is close, it is a real diamond. If it does not, it is counterfeit.
• Light test: Place the diamond in front of the light. If it is reflected in a gray color, it means that it is real, but if it reflects the colors of the spectrum, it means that it is counterfeit.
• If you can not distinguish the original piece from counterfeit, do not try to ask the seller unless it is reliable, but it is best to ask a reliable jewelry expert instead of the average seller, he is able to easily distinguish the real from the fake thanks to his experience.
