How to identify the authenticity of moissanite and how to identify it?

There are three ways to identify the authenticity of moissanite:

The first move. When identifying imported moissanite, we can carry a pencil, wet the imported moissanite, and use a pencil to scratch on the imported moissanite. Then the fountain pen can also be identified, a pen dipped in ink on the imported Moissanite line, the surface of the real imported Moissanite will leave a continuous and smooth ink line, on the contrary, the fake imported Moissanite will not appear continuous lines, in the same way, with the imported Moissanite on the glass, the real imported Moissanite will leave a white mark, and the fake imported Moissanite will not appear anything.

The second trick. You can use water droplets to identify the authenticity of imported moissanite, and use a toothpick to drop a drop of water on the dry imported moissanite, the real imported moissanite will appear round water droplets, and the fake imported moissanite will quickly disperse.

The third trick. Due to the single refraction of imported moissanite, the real imported moissanite is radiant and cannot be seen through the handprints, while the false imported moissanite has poor transmittance, and the handprints can be seen through it.

At last. Imported moissanite is the best among gemstones, so domestic products are also imitated, and it is easy to be deceived and lose money in reality. Therefore, this requires us to have and master the skills to identify the authenticity of imported moissanite to prevent being deceived.

At the same time, you can also choose a good quality imported moissanite brand when buying moissanite, such as the imported moissanite of the only diamond club, so that you can eliminate the confusion of real and fake imported moissanite.

The fire color of moissanite is scattered, much more intense than diamond, in the sun and light, can burst out of strong fire, and is colorful, (under the light or sunlight) with zircon as a contrast, will produce a clear difference, is one of the ways to identify moissanite and zircon.

2.Cut.

The more savvy merchants will use Moissanite-coated zircon to pass off as Moissanite, and how should we distinguish this kind of fake "Moissanite"? Generally, the American moissanite, the cut used is eight hearts and eight arrows cut, and zircon coated moissanite, is not up to this standard, cut under the mirror, is looking at the eight hearts, looking at the eight arrows can basically be concluded to be the United States moissanite, on the contrary, it may be poor quality domestic moissanite or zircon coated moissanite.

Although moissanite.

It is an excellent diamond imitation, but it is not unrecognizable.

For an appraiser with some experience, only need to pass through a 10 magnifying glass.

It can be easily identified with a diamond colorimetric light. In general, connoisseurs also have a certain ability to identify by the naked eye, but in general, the visual identification of moissanite is more difficult, and if the basic magnification examination can be carried out, the identification results will be much more reliable.

The name system of imitation diamonds is relatively confusing, and moissanite (also called "Meishenlai") is generally written as moissanite or silicon carbide when opening a domestic certificate.

This can be found in jewelry specialty stores, which have such services. Appraisers also take time to develop.

1. Fire.

It is important to know that the fire color of moissanite is scattered, much stronger than that of diamonds, in the sun and light, it can burst out with strong fire, and it is colorful, (under the light or sun) with zircon as a contrast, there will be a significant difference, is one of the ways to identify moissanite and zircon.

2. Cut. The more savvy merchants will use Moissanite-coated zircon to pass off as Moissanite, and how should we distinguish this kind of fake "Moissanite"? Generally, the cut used in American moissanite is cut with eight hearts and eight arrows, and zircon coated moissanite.

It is not up to this standard, look at the cut mirror, look at the eight hearts, and look at the eight arrows can basically be concluded to be American moissanite, on the contrary, it may be poor quality domestic moissanite or zircon coated moissanite.

3. Lipophilic.

Diamonds and moissanite are both lipophilic, while zircon is not, you can use a drop of oil on the moissanite platform, the oil immediately disperses can be determined to be moissanite, and the oil does not disperse zircon.

4. Glooming. Moissanite is a birefringent gemstone, if you look closely at the moissanite ridge line and culet, you can see ghosting, changing the viewing angle, the ghosting will still appear, while zircon has no ghosting.

5. Hardness. The hardness of moissanite is only lower than that of diamond, and the hardness of zircon is about 6-7, and the two rub against each other, moissanite can leave scratches on the surface of zircon, while zircon cannot scratch moissanite. This method is risky and not recommended.

Being able to pass the drill measuring pen is the real Moissanite, but being able to pass the drilling measuring pen does not mean that the quality of moissanite is good.

The first trick to identify the American Moissanite we can carry a pencil, the American Moissanite wet, with a pencil on the American Moissanite, the real American Moissanite will not leave traces of strokes, and the fake can clearly see the traces left. Then the fountain pen can also be identified, a pen dipped in ink and crossed on the American moissanite, the surface of the real American moissanite will leave a continuous and smooth ink line, on the contrary, the fake American moissanite will not appear continuous lines, in the same way, with the American moissanite on the glass, the real American moissanite will leave a white mark, and the fake American moissanite will not appear anything. The second trick can be to use water droplets to identify the authenticity of American moissanite, drop a drop of water with a toothpick on the dry American moissanite, the real American moissanite will appear round water droplets, and the fake American moissanite will quickly disperse.

The third trick is due to the single refractive nature of American moissanite, so the real American moissanite is radiant and cannot be seen through the handprints, while the false American moissanite has poor transmittance, and the handprints can be seen through it. Finally, the only diamond you asked about is imported from the United States** That's right, in 2013, the United States authorized Moissanite to the only diamond club.

Dear, for you to find out the identification method of moissanite, the first identification method is fire. After all, natural moissanite is still relatively rare, so many moissanite on the market are also said to be synthetic, or counterfeit with zircon. The fire of moissanite is not the same as that of tongyu zircon.

Pure moissanite bursts into brilliant colors under any light, but this fire is not noticeable on zircon, and sometimes it is not even present. This method of identifying moissanite is relatively simple and easy to operate. The second way to identify this is lipophilicity.

Moissanite is lipophilic, whereas zircon does not have this lipophilic. Therefore, moissanite can be identified with oil. You can drop a drop of oil on moissanite and zircon separately to see if the oil will disperse.

Only in the case of scattering can it be proved that this is moissanite, and vice versa, zircon. This method can also be used when there is no zircon to contrast, after all, oil is a very easy thing to get in everyday life. The fourth way to identify this is fire.

Fire is also more common in life, and the surface of moissanite can be burned with a fire of no more than 600 degrees. Real moissanite will change color when exposed to high temperatures, appearing yellowish, but as the temperature cools, the color will return to the same as before. This seemingly miraculous situation cannot be achieved with fake moissanite, which is likely to be burned or discolored and never recovered.
