Is a rhinestone a diamond? Many people may not be able to tell the difference, so let’s take a closer look at rhinestones today.
Rhinestones are short for crystal diamonds, which are actually neither natural crystals nor natural diamonds, but rather imitations of diamonds Often, the commercial term “crystal” does not refer to natural crystals, but rather to a special type of brilliant glass used in artificial jewelry. Swarovski crystals, for example, are actually lead glass (artificial glass with added lead), which has a very beautiful color because of the addition of metallic lead. If you go to a geological and mineral testing center, the results that come out are synthetic glass. Swarovski and Austrian crystal selling point is the process and design, if a single into the composition, are synthetic glass. Also, like usually see some write crystal wine glass, just represents the better quality of glass, not that the wine glass is made of crystal. Rhinestones are available in several common materials, including glass, synthetic crystal, topaz, zircon, synthetic cubic zirconia, etc., and are used exclusively in low- to mid-range jewelry. The rhinestones are distinguished by origin and are commonly known as Austrian (Austria), Czech, Korean, domestic A, and domestic B diamonds. Swarovski crystals are the best among rhinestones because of their excellent cutting and brilliance. The luster of Czech diamonds can be maintained for up to 3 years. The color of rhinestones varies greatly and so does their brilliance, but all in all, no matter what type of rhinestone it is, there is a big difference compared to a real diamond. The rhinestone has at most a dozen facets, and rhinestones do not have the fire of a diamond. So is a rhinestone a broken diamond? Of course not. Crushed diamonds are diamonds under 10 points (0.1 carat). The diamonds are not broken, just small in size, and those over 1 point are also full diamonds with 57 facets. The price is not expensive because it is small, but when used for group pavement pavé, all need a high number of microscope manual inlay, the process cost is not low, so the price of the jewelry of the group pavement diamond is naturally not low. The price of a diamond group setting is not low, and it is not used in jewelry, clothing, shoes and bags, like rhinestones.It is often said that small diamonds are not worth much. This is relative. The company’s main goal is to provide the best possible service to its customers. If you add the use of some slightly larger fraction of small diamonds or shaped diamonds, the cost increases a lot. These are still the prices of the original products in the wholesale market, not counting the added value of the brand and design. If it is a big brand of products, then there is no way to consider it in this way. Just like Swarovski, the price of craftsmanship and design far outweighs the raw material itself.
In short, rhinestones are used in jewelry and crushed diamonds are used in jewelry.Warm reminder: Keep an eye on the LuFuture.com app for the latest market updates.
