How To Identify Fake Blue Diamonds

Article Category: Fashion

Author Name: Patricia Dibbins

When most people think about diamonds, it is the clear variety that usually comes to mind. However clear diamonds aren't actually the rarest or most valuable of these diamonds. It takes millions of years of extreme pressure and temperatures to create a diamond. As a diamond forms, sometimes rare conditions occur that introduce a change in how it forms, producing a colored diamond. Colored diamonds are exponentially rarer than your common variety clear diamonds. Of the colors that a diamond can come in, blue diamonds are among the most rare. They are formed by the introduction of boron during the diamond's formation. There is a limited number of shades that can be produced because of the limited amount of boron than can infiltrate a diamond's structure during its formation. One should keep in mind that blue diamonds are technically an imperfection in the structure of the diamond, which means the colored variety are typically slightly weaker than clear diamonds.

If you want jewelry that is unique and unquestionably expensive, colored diamonds are the obvious choice. They are ideal as gifts to your loved one, and more especially as investments that increase in value over time. However because of this, they are also counterfeited. A respectable jeweler should be able to identify a fake blue diamond from a genuine one. Cubic zirconia, plastic and glass can be colored to resemble the look of a blue diamond. Thankfully, there are easy ways you can distinguish them without having to go to a jeweler's just to have the stone inspected. One thing you can do is hold up the diamond to a light. A genuine blue diamond would appear sparkling blue from the light. Forgeries would not shine as brightly, often coming up muddled, and some will even give you a direct line of sight to the light source.

While blue diamonds are unquestionably rare, some particular pieces have achieved legendary status. A good example is the hope diamond which is being kept at the Smithsonian Institute. The story of its origins has yet to be verified, but it is said to have been made from a larger 112 carat blue diamond that was sold to King Louis XIV. It was then cut down to 67 1/8 carats so that it could become an important part of the French Crown Jewels. Then in the French Revolution the diamond disappeared, never to resurface again, except that in 1839, a 45.52 carat blue diamond appeared in the gem catalog of a collector by the name of Henry Phillip Hope, hence the name.
