I wonder if it is real? Is the question that most people think of in the back of their minds when they find, buy, or receive the little shiny stone. I often even wonder when I pass by a jewelry case or see a ring on someone's finger if it's real. I think that it is somewhat natural to be just a little bit curious if the person spent a little bit of money or did they spend a lot of money.
Here we are going to go over a few tests that will go over how to tell if the rock that you are looking at is the real thing or is just another pretty imitation. One of the first things that a person can do is look through the stone to see if it is completely clear or not, if it is completely clear then most likely it is a cubic zirconia. Diamonds more often than not have some kind of imperfection in them.
Another easy way to tell if you have a diamond or a cubic zirconia is to put the stone onto a piece of paper or magazine or newspaper and see if you are able to read some of the words or letters on the page through the stone. If you can then it is more than likely not a diamond as diamonds are almost always created with some kind of deformity
Also another test that is eay to do is the breathe test is a test that uses your breathe to tell if the stone holds heat or not. It works by breathing on the stone like you would a pair of glasses and watching how fast the fog goes away. If it goes away fast then it could be a diamond, if to goes away slow then it is probably a cubic zirconia.
Another great way to tell if you have a great stone or a fake is. If you are able to have access to the interior of the ring or pocket watch then see if there is a C.Z. stamped there if there is then you have a cubic zirconia. On the other hand if there are numbers and then the letter k then it might be that you have a real diamond on your hands.
This next test works if you have another stone that you are sure is a diamond and is almost the same size. This test works by the basis of weight. If the known diamond is much lighter than the one in question then it is probably fake. Cubic zirconias are almost twice as heavy as a diamond.
