Not applicable. Cut
Carat
Not applicable as this is not a diamond.
Color
Deep vibrant blue.
Clarity
Included heavily with gas bubbles and flow lines (not applicable to diamond grading scales).
Shape
Irregular polished bar or fragment.
Overall Assessment
The specimen shown in the image is not a diamond, but rather a piece of vibrant blue manufactured glass or resin containing diagnostic gas bubbles and internal flow patterns.
Cut Quality
Not applicable.
Brilliance
Vitreous luster, but lacking true diamond brilliance.
Fire
Absent; no high dispersion characteristic of diamond.
Scintillation
Low due to lack of standard facet patterns.
Proportions
Non-standard, elongated slab form.
Symmetry
Irregular.
Polish
Poor to fair, displaying visible surface striations.
Fluorescence
Strong blue luminescence visible under UV/special lighting conditions.
Inclusions
Abundant rounded gas bubbles and swirl structures indicative of synthetic glass or melted material.
Blemishes
Surface scratches and minor abrasions.
Origin
Man-made (synthetic glass or polymer).
Treatment Detection
Artificial coloring agents and bubble inclusions confirm man-made origin.
Estimated Value
Nominal value as a decorative or craft item.
Certification Estimate
Standard gemological laboratories (GIA, IGI) would issue a report identifying this as man-made glass or resin rather than diamond.
Investment Potential
None.
Similar Diamonds
None, as the material is entirely different mineralogically.
Setting Suggestions
Not recommended for fine jewelry due to material softness; better suited for artisan crafts.
Care & Maintenance
Keep away from high heat, harsh chemicals, and abrasive surfaces.
Interesting Facts
The visible round bubbles are a classic diagnostic feature distinguishing manufactured glass from natural or synthetic gemstones.
