Gemstone Beads
Gemstone Meaning: The difference between natural, synthetic, and simulated gemstones
Natural: As their name suggests, natural gemstones are those that occur in nature. Since natural gemstones are often far from perfect when it comes to colour or clarity, these features are often enhanced by using heat, chemicals, irradiation, or laser treatment.
Synthetic: Contrary to what many people think, synthetic gemstone does not mean fake. Synthetic or reconstructed gemstones are created in a labratory under high pressure by using the same compounds that make up natural gemstones. They are identical to their natural counterparts in terms of chemical composition and physical properties.
Simulated: Simulated gemstones are made of glass or resin and resemble the appearance of a natural gemstone but do not have the same chemical and physical properties.
PLEASE NOTE: Natural gemstone or semi precious stone come from minerals. Due to the naturality, the stones may have tiny flaws. Meanwhile, cutting or polishing also makes every piece of gemstone vary in colour and size, so the quantity of the beads may be slightly different in the same length bead strand, especially when they are produced in different batches.
