Overall Assessment
The high level of rainbow 'fire' and specific facet structure strongly suggest this is a high-quality simulant rather than a natural earth-mined diamond.
Cut Quality
Fair to Good
Brilliance

Estimated Value
$10 - $100 if simulant; $3,000 - $8,000 if lab-grown; $12,000+ if natural
Certification Estimate
Unlikely to be GIA/AGS natural; likely commercial grade or simulant
Investment Potential
Low (high depreciation for simulants and lab-grown)
Similar Diamonds
