Zircon is actually glass.
Ms. Zhang is going to buy a pendant for her daughter online. In China Construction Bank Shanrong Business Personal Mall, Ms. Zhang took a fancy to a Jin Lu pendant, the price was 1076 yuan, and the seller was Zhaojinyinlou flagship store.
Ms. Zhang: It's exquisite. It is written in thousands of gold and hard 3D, and it has a strong three-dimensional effect.
Ms. Zhang took a fancy to this pendant, not only because it is made of pure gold 999, but also because it is inlaid with four red zircon, which looks very beautiful.
Ms. Zhang: Zircon is very expensive, a very high-grade gem, and it is also thousands of gold. It looks quite high-grade.
Soon, Ms. Zhang bought this gold-inlaid zircon deer pendant and sent it home. Ms. Zhang looked at the pendant carefully and felt something was wrong.
Ms. Zhang: The color of red, under the sunlight, is similar to that of street stalls and plastic.
Ms. Zhang, who knows little about jewelry, decided to send this pendant to a professional testing institution for identification.
Ms. Zhang: The testing department told us that it has nothing to do with zircon. It's an imitation ruby, and it was bought at such a high price from a shopping mall with such a high reputation.
In China Construction Bank Shanrong Business Personal Mall, she actually bought a fake. Ms. Zhang quickly contacted the seller to recruit the flagship store of Jinyinlou.
The staff of Zhaojinyinlou flagship store insisted that the pendant they sold was inlaid with red zircon, but when Ms. Zhang told her that it was not zircon, the staff immediately changed their story.
Staff of Zhaojinyinlou Flagship Store: Please leave your phone number and contact in the afternoon after sale.
On the same day, the after-sales staff of Jinyinlou flagship store called Ms. Zhang.
After-sales staff: Don't worry, our quality is guaranteed. China Construction Bank asked us to do this, and they approved it.
Since the zircon claimed by the merchants of Shanrong Business Personal Mall is not zircon, what is it? The inspectors further tested it.
Dong Zhenxin, Director of Jewelry Testing Center of China Federation of Industry and Commerce: Not ruby, zircon or synthetic cubic zirconia, but glass.
The so-called Ma Laiyu is actually a stone.
Shopping in China Construction Bank Shanrong Business Personal Mall, there is also Xiao Zhang.
Xiao Zhang took a fancy to a 108 Ma Laiyu bracelet in a shop named Beijing Jiuzhou Ke Rui Co., Ltd. in Shanrong Business Personal Mall, and the price was 845 yuan.
When this blue Ma Laiyu bracelet arrived, Xiao Zhang couldn't put it down and put it on his wrist soon, but after a friend's party, Xiao Zhang never wanted to wear it again.
Xiao Zhang: Showing off with friends, he looked at it carefully and thought it might not be Ma Laiyu, because he knew something. I said I bought it under the banner of China Construction Bank (website). How can it be fake?
Looking at such a beautiful bracelet, it's not Ma Laiyu's, but stone's? Xiao Zhang didn't believe it, but his friend decided that he had been cheated and repeatedly persuaded him to do a test. Unable to withstand the persuasion of friends, Xiao Zhang identified the name of this bracelet as Ma Laiyu, but it turned out to be quartzite, a string of stones!
So, what is Ma Laiyu? What is the difference between it and quartzite jade?
Dong Zhenxin, director of the Jewelry Testing Center of China Federation of Industry and Commerce, said that it is dyed quartzite, and there is no such thing as Ma Laiyu in the national gemstone testing standard.
I can't believe it. How did he buy fake goods on such a big shopping website as China Construction Bank?
