About this Item
Notes
Synthetic corundum has distinguishing characteristics. The Verneuil process always produces curved growth lines, which are visible under magnification and with the correct illumination. No natural mineral ever displays such curved lines, called striae, and their presence is a guarantee of synthetic origin. Synthetic Gemstone Guide - International Gem Society
