How to Spot Real Demantoid
von Lomach am 29.05.2025 21:00Hey everyone! I've been researching rare green garnets and came across demantoid. They seem stunning, but I'm a bit nervous about fakes. How can you actually tell a real one from an imitation?

I found some good references while browsing Tsarina Jewels https://tsarinajewels.com/ . Their gemstones and high end jewelry often feature Russian demantoids with clear internal "horsetail" inclusions — one of the key signs of authenticity. The color should be vibrant green, sometimes with a hint of yellow, and the sparkle is intense due to high dispersion. If it looks too perfect or lacks inner character, that's usually a red flag. Natural stones almost always have a story in their structure.
