fogged in at the beach

[Caretaker me]

hit the beach sat afternoon, got there and it was foggy, one good thing, had the beach to myself, bad thing, no one was there to lose anything, did dig a couple of things, got a sports watch, it to small it doesn't fit, and a heart stopper, got a earring with a stone, it's not marked so I figuring it's fake, but I'll have it checked later, hoping for some sunshine today

I got the matching one out here in Tacoma I haven't had mine checked either , but it's the exact same one and it does stop the heart for a sec when it pops out of the ground lol. HH. Stryker

On the "table" the larger flat part of the stone, to check to see if its a CZ use a ink pen and write on it. Look at the writing with a loupe, if the ink "beads" up in little ink droplets you got yourself a CZ instead of a diamond. There will be a line of little ink beads, believe me I know.......

How can you tell the difference between a Cubic Zirconia and a Diamond:
Cubic zirconia can be identified by a specific gravity test of a unmounted stone.
Cubic zirconia can be identified by marking ink on the table (flat top) of the stone; on cubic zirconia the ink beads up.
When gem printed, cubic zirconia photographs the reflective and refractive pattern.
When measured for heat conductivity with diamond probe, cubic zirconia and other imitations register red on the indicator; diamond registers green.
