Role of Crystal Formation in Cubic Zirconia Creation

Natural gems are minerals that have a characteristic chemical composition and exhibit a definite crystal structure. Under favorable conditions, which, given the rarity of natural gems, happen less often than one might think, minerals in nature form defined crystals. Gemologists have found that there is a direct relationship between a mineral’s crystal structure and the properties that give a gemstone its beauty, color and durability. These physical properties also allow mineralogists to correctly identify minerals and affect the gemologist’s ability to cut raw minerals into valuable gemstones.

Production of cubic zirconia and lab created gems simply takes the guesswork out of Mother Nature’s gem creation process. In the lab, scientists are able to reliably and consistently create the very exacting optimal conditions necessary for perfect mineral crystal formation. While natural mineral crystals are often marred by occlusions of other minerals or matter, high quality lab created gems can be flawlessly created with perfect crystalline form.

When gem cutters cut raw minerals, whether natural or manmade,  into gems, their task is constrained by the structure of the mineral crystal. Any aberrations in the crystal will limit cutting options including final shape, size, number and angle of facets, etc.; thereby limiting the potential beauty and salability of the finished stone.  The perfect crystal formation of lab created cubic zirconia and other lab gems enables gem cutters to fully maximize the beauty of every crystal produced during the cutting process.

It is important to note that not all lab created gems are equal. Some synthetic gem suppliers offer loose cz and lab gems made using questionable laboratory techniques or inferior raw materials. Reputable wholesale cz and lab gem suppliers like PehnecGems provide only the highest quality loose cubic zirconia and loose lab created rubies and lab sapphires. Our 100% satisfaction guarantee assures customers they will receive the highest quality product with every order. Visit our website at www.Pehnec.com.

    I AM STARTING TO DESIGN MY OWN CLOTHES AND I AM FINDING IT VERY HARD TO FIND STONES AND CUBIC ZIRCONIAS TO PUT ON MY CLOTHES AND I ALSO ADD EMBELLISHMENTS TO WEDDING DRESSES, AND ALOT OF THE WOMAN KNOW WHAT THEY WANT, IF I CAN FIND IT. THANK YOU. IF YOU CAN HELP ME I WOULD BE VERY THANKFUL.
