Gem Stones-- Difference between Lab Created Gem Stone and Natural -- SWEE

[Guest guest]

Hello Experts,

 

Please explain about the difference between a LAB Created Gem Stone and

a Natural Gem Stone. How much effective is a LAB Created Gem Stone say

e.g. Blue Sapphire.

 

Most of the Stores in US keep Lab Created Gem Stones fitted in low

quality gold. Whether these act as an ideal substitute for a natural

Blue Sappire in Silver or Pure Gold.

 

 

Kind Regards,

Harcharan

Dear Haracharan,

Namaste

 

Bala's aura was refulgent with penance and though Indra killed him, so very,

very powerful was the "essence" of Bala's body, it was involved in a tug of

war by Devas, Yaksas, Siddhas, Serpents etc., different parts of his body

turned in different gems and they all have special powers and purposes.

(Some of these will be given in the Delhi Workshop in Jan 2006, so do try

and attend :-))

Thousands of year before lab grown Chatham Emeralds and lab grown Ruby came

into existence, it was already mentioned in the Purana!

So, what is the difference??!!

 

Love,

Swee

Yes in the USA they use 18 K gold while in India they set gemstones in 22 K gold.

 

Also in Delhi there is a Gem testing lab in Jhandewalan Flatted Factory Complex

where they test gemstones for as little as Rs. 200 per stone and give a superb

certificate.

 

In the USA you can also buy a Moisanite - it looks like a real diamond and many

a traders in India have been fooled.

 

Vishal.

New Delhi.

The gems are measured by 4C's and their physical properties. The following properties:

Specific Gravity

Refractive Index

Hardness

Cleavage

Toughness

Magnetic and Electric properties

are different for a lab created gemstone.

It is safe to assume that by altering the nature of the gemstone its

effects will be altered too.

If you want ideal substitutes then, it is best to go in for semi

precious gemstones. For example, instead of a Emerald use Peridot or a

Green Tourmaline.

Thanks and Regards

Bharat

Presently, I do not know the Sanskrit names for Peridot and Tourmaline.

One of the articles with me from GII, Mumbai states that Peridot is

derived from the word "Faridat". This is said to be an arabic word

which means "Gem".

Tourmaline comes from the Sri Lankan Singhalese word "tura mali". Tura

Mali means a gem of many colors. Tourmaline is actually found in many

different colors. Some beautiful tourmalines are of mixed colors.

If I come to know of their sanskrit names, I shall share it with you.

Thanks and Regards

Dear Bharat,

 

Namaste

 

?

 

These are the names I have retrieved from Garuòa Purana for Emerald

substitute:

 

?

 

Bhallataka ?which is a very close imitation of emerald in features, colour

and quality but its colour fades and changes when air is blown over it.

 

It can be Green Beryl from Brazil, whose colour is not stable. It loses its

colour when it has been exposed to Air/Sun. The other one that loses its

colour is Spodumene. Zambian and Nigerian Green Beryls are stable in colour.

 

?

 

Putrika loses its brilliance when rubbed with a silken cloth. This can be

either Apatite or Peridot. Apatite’s colour is greener (less of the  y

ellowish tinge) but both Apatite and Peridot are very soft stones. After

wearing for about a year, you might as well throw away the Peridot. :-) Most

Apatite workings are around the same mining area where Aquamarine (Beryl) is

found.

 

?

 

In Emerald mining areas, mostly green Tourmalines are found. I have also

found something that maybe of interest for budding miners:

 

That if your Tourmaline finds are very good, then the finds for the

Aquamarine is mostly eroded. (Usually,  these finds are close by). Vanadium

is the compound that colours the blue beryl (aquamarine) green. (One can

also find the same compound in green Chrysoberyl).

 

?

 

I think we can safely conclude that, because Emerald comes from the Beryl

family, the best substitute is the Green Beryl which is a fraction of the

price of Emerald.

 

?

 

Love,

 

Swee

Only the chemical composition cannot be said to reflect the effect of a

said gemstone. The other properties have to be taken into account. Why

I was keen on Green Tourmaline and Peridot is because of their ability

to put things in the right perspective. They stop reactionary mind and

makes a person focus to a given task. These qualities are very similar

to that of an Emerald.

I will write in detail about the properties of these three gemstones and my experiences with them.

Thanks and Regards
