These imitations can be either synthetic or natural. (Synthetic diamonds, on the other hand, have the same chemical composition as real diamonds and are not considered fake.) A loupe is a magnifying glass that you can buy at any jewelry store and will let you take a closer look at your gem and setting. The majority of diamonds are made in nature so that means you’re going to see some imperfections. A fake stone would be absolutely perfect. Most of our Diamond Alternatives are Austrian Zirconia (99.99% of the time) but are not limited to this type of stone and may vary depending on availability. 925 Sterling silver is a great option because it's durable and long lasting, so it's good for rings, necklaces, bracelets, cufflinks, belt buckles, body jewelry... you get the picture.
