Natural rubies are one of the more expensive of the various gems and are also very popular. In particular, some middle-aged and older women are more interested in natural ruby jewelry. Because it is very popular and expensive, some merchants take risks and use artificial rubies to pretend to be natural rubies. So, what are the characteristics of artificial rubies, how should consumers identify them?
Uniform color
Natural rubies are mainly red in color, but natural rubies alternate in color and depth, and the junction is very natural. However, the artificially suitable ruby color is relatively simple, and there is no difference in depth or depth, and there is no layered feeling.
Surface warming
We all know that the surface of natural ruby has a chilly, cool feeling. Even if the natural ruby is placed in the palm of your hand in the summer, you will feel a sense of ice. But the synthetic ruby surface has a warm feeling. Especially in the summer, this feeling is more obvious.
Low hardness
Natural ruby is the hardest of all gemstones, with a hardness of around 9.0. The synthetic ruby hardness is far from this level. As for how to judge the hardness of a gemstone, we can use a more sharp object to scratch the surface of the gemstone to see if the surface will leave scratches. The surface of natural rubies leaves almost no scratches. Synthetic rubies are prone to scratches.
Distinct edges and corners
The surface of the artificial gemstone is very sharp and has a hand-feeling feel when touched by hand. The edges of natural rubies are naturally formed and have a smooth surface. Touching the edges of the edges with your hands will give you a smooth feel.
Dark spot
Some synthetic rubies have some noticeable black spots inside. Natural rubies may have naturally formed rust spots inside, mostly white rust spots.
Growing lines are more curved
The growth lines of natural rubies are straight, and the growth lines of natural rubies are perpendicular to the crystal faces of the stones. Compared to natural rubies, synthetic ruby growth lines are more curved because the synthetic ruby growth line is inverted pear-shaped growth.
The introduction on how to distinguish between natural rubies and artificial rubies is here, and the Van Jewelry Display Cabinet is looking forward to working with you.
