One of the best ways to invest money is to buy gems. The best and most unmistakable gift is jewelry with precious stones. But how not to stumble, how not to be trapped, how to find out if what is sold in numerous stores is not a fake. No one ever wants to be deceived.
Instructions
Step 1
The first and undeniable rule that everyone should remember is that each gem has its own certificate, which confirms its quality. Take the certificate in your hands and hold it to the light, you will see a watermark that will confirm the authenticity of the certificate, if they are missing, pay attention to the seal, which is also a guarantor of authenticity.
Step 2
In the store, first of all, ask the seller for information about the rights of the buyer and the obligations of the seller of jewelry, then familiarize yourself with it, then select the item you are interested in, carefully inspect it for cracks, scratches, specks.
Step 3
Pay special attention to the tag and the price tag, then ask the seller well about how it is ennobled and what is the origin of the stone. Ask for a closer look at the jewelry. Take it in your hand and carefully examine the stone, if you have a diamond, ruby or sapphire in your hands, then it should be crystal clear, without the slightest defects, and, of course, have a luster that is incomparable with the brilliance of cubic zirconia. For clarity, you can ask the seller to show you a similar cubic zirconia jewelry.
Step 4
If you are holding amber or turquoise in your hands, then another rule works here, the more streaks and inclusions a stone has, the more obvious that it is real!
Step 5
Take a gem in your hand, place it in the center of your palm and hold it for 2 minutes, then determine whether the stone has warmed up or not, if it has warmed up, then you can doubt its authenticity. You can also breathe on the stone, the real stone will not fog up in any way.
