With the increasing demand for jewelry and diamonds, the market for fake diamonds such as artificial diamonds is expanding, and even some jewelry operators can't tell the difference. Here are some simple ways to identify the authenticity of diamonds.

1, single refraction of diamond

The single refraction of diamond is determined by its essential characteristics. While other natural gemstones or artificial gem are mostly birefringent. When the fake diamond is observed with a magnifying glass of 10 times, it is easy to see that the edges and corners overlap, and two bottom lights are exposed at the same time from the slightly inclined front. If the difference in birefringence is small, such as zircon, you can also see the image of overlapping background light.

2. Adsorption of diamonds

Diamonds have a certain affinity for grease and dirt, that is, oil stains are easily adsorbed by diamonds. So touching the diamond with your fingers will feel sticky, and your fingers seem to feel sticky. This is not found in any gem. This method needs training to master the nuances.

3. Characteristics of straight lines

The surface of the diamond is polished very smoothly. Dip the pen in ink and cross the diamond. If it is a real diamond, the surface will leave a smooth and continuous line, which is characterized by a straight line. Forgery will leave dots and lines. Observation in this way should be made with the help of a magnifying glass.

4. Unique diamond luster

Under the incandescent light of 100 degree, it is easy to see which diamond has diamond luster by comparing with the counterfeit. This method should not be carried out in too dark or too strong light.
