Buyer beware

Synthetic rubies (lab-grown) are chemically identical to natural ones but worth far less. Always ask for a lab certificate.

Glass-filled rubies have fractures filled with lead glass to improve transparency. These are low-quality and damage easily.

Spinel and garnet are commonly sold as Pearl Stone (Moti) . Both are red gemstones but have very different properties and values.

Heavily heated rubies are worth significantly less than unheated stones. A "no heat" certificate adds substantial value.

Always buy from reputed, certified dealers and insist on a lab certificate before any high-value purchase.
