I had a tennis bracelet that had CZs set in 14K gold. One of the stones had come out and I took it to have it put back in..they were only too happy to tell me they were NOT diamonds but CZs.

Did the packaging say it was quartz crystal? Quartz crystal often has unclear parts cracks etc. within. Glass is usually perfectly clear and even.

Guest guest Posted January 29, 2005 Report Share Posted January 29, 2005 you can also do a very quick muscle test (kinesiology style, tightly holding the little finger to thumb together and then have someone pull these apart, testing the strength)... holding the quartz in the recieving hand (Yin)... if the finger/thumb grip stays strong it will quartz... weak will be glass... if you would like to go deeper, then test the crystal (or literally anything) by holding it against your solar plexus in your recieving hand (Yin... usually the left hand for right handed people) and test the anterior deltoid of the the other arm (in this case, the right arm will be raised directly out in front of you, have somone apply pressure over wrist, not the hand... pushing gradually towards the ground)... if the muscle stays strong then the crystal (or whatever your are testing) is constructive to the body... love Si.x - rosequartz Friday, January 28, 2005 1:10 PM Re: [CrystalHW] Crystals: Difference between fake and real thenlitnd1 wrote: > >Does anyone know if there is a way to tell the difference between a >real quartz crystal and a fake (glass or whatever)?
