Non-diamond (Glass/Slag/Plastic)

Non-diamond (Glass/Slag/Plastic) · Rough / Uncut fragment with jagged edges

None (Irregular fragment) Cut

Non-diamond (Glass/Slag/Plastic) - Rough / Uncut fragment with jagged edges

Carat

Indeterminate (Visual size suggests medium-large specimen)

Color

Colorless/Translucent with visible red background reflection

Clarity

Poor (Highly included with fractures and surface debris)

Shape

Rough / Uncut fragment with jagged edges

Overall Assessment

The specimen is not a diamond. Based on surface morphology, conchoidal fracture patterns, and internal flow lines, it is identified as a fragment of glass or clear synthetic resin.

Cut Quality

None (Irregular fragment)

Brilliance

Low (Lacks high refractive index of diamond)

Fire

Weak (Visible mainly as surface diffraction/oil film effect)

Scintillation

Negligible

Proportions

Non-standard irregular mass

Symmetry

Poor / Asymmetrical

Polish

Poor (Uneven, scratched surface)

Fluorescence

Non-applicable

Inclusions

Gas bubbles, flow lines, and internal stress fractures visible

Blemishes

Heavy surface scratching, conchoidal fractures, and impact chips

Origin

Industrial byproduct or recycled glass

Treatment Detection

None detected; natural state of material is industrial

Estimated Value

Negligible / Decorative value only

Certification Estimate

Unlikely to be certified by major labs (GIA/IGI) as a gemstone

Investment Potential

Zero

Similar Diamonds

None; characteristics align with glass cullet or clear acrylic

Setting Suggestions

Not recommended for fine jewelry; possible craft wire-wrap

Care & Maintenance

Avoid high heat and pressure; fragile material prone to shattering

Interesting Facts

The wavy flow lines and conchoidal fractures are classic diagnostic indicators of glass rather than crystalline diamond.
