Different ways to tell if your crystal is real!

Different ways to tell if your crystal is real!

  • Real Crystal temperature is cool to the touch 
  • Real Crystals do not get scratched easy (Crystal hardness- Authentic Crystals normally can scratch glass)
  • Real Crystals have imperfections (you can use a magnifying glass to look at the surface or patterns)
  1. Crystals have imperfect different shapes and patterns.  If a Crystal is perfect and symmetrical than most likely its fake!
  2. There are no air-bubbles in real Crystals.  Crystals are made by pressure and air-bubbles will not be in real Crystals.  If you have a Crystal with air-bubbles those are called glass bubbles or plastic bubbles and that will tell you its fake!
  • Real Crystals are usually heavier than fake Crystals

 

*KEEP IN MIND THERE ARE SOME CRYSTALS THAT ARE DYED  AND HEAT TREATED.  THE REASON BEHIND THAT IS THERE ARE SOME CRYSTALS THAT ARE TOUGHER TO FIND IN ITS NATURAL FORM.                              FOR EXAMPLE CITRINE.  RAW STONES OF CITRINE ARE RARE!  BUT YOU CAN GET CITRINE BY HEAT TREATED NATURAL QUARTZ LIKE AMETHYST.
