Differences between natural and man-made stones

Naturally Colored Stones – Natural stones are naturally occurring and mined form the earth. They are rarer and more unique in nature. Their value depends on clarity, color, weight, and origin. Natural stones may have natural inclusions, which often indicates their natural origin. 

Artificially Created (Synthetic) Stones – Synthetic stones are produced in laboratories, but their chemical composition and physical properties are identical to natural stones. Artificial stones are more affordable and have a cleaner appearance, as they are free of natural defects. However, despite their similarity to natural stones, their value on the market is significantly lower. 

The Main Difference – Natural stones are valued for their uniqueness and rarity, and synthetic stones are valued for their availability and visual perfection without natural inclusions. 

Why you should choose colored stones

Natural colored stones have a special appeal due to their uniqueness, natural origin, and rarity. Each stone is a unique creation of nature, which has been formed for millions of years. The process of its formation makes the stone unique in color, shape, and structure. Natural inclusions that can be found in such stones add a special individuality to them, turning jewelry with them into a work of art. By choosing natural colored stones, you are acquiring not just jewelry, but a piece of nature, personifying its strength and beauty; which you can add to your bespoke jewelry.

Buying colored stones is not only an aesthetic pleasure, but also a smart investment decision. Over time, rare and high-quality natural stones can significantly increase in price. This is due to the fact that the deposits of many precious stones are gradually depleted, which increases their scarcity and increases their cost. Unlike synthetic stones, which are always available, natural ones are becoming increasingly valuable precisely due to their rarity and uniqueness. In addition, natural-colored stones have a special collectible value. They are often collected in private collections, which can become real treasures. 

How to pick colored stones

Choosing colored gemstones for jewelry and collections requires careful consideration. Color is key – it should be rich, uniform, and suit your taste. Stones with deep, clear hues are usually valued higher. Clarity also plays an important role. Although small natural inclusions can make a stone unique, the fewer there are, the more expensive the stone is. Cut affects how the stone is important not only for its collectible value, but also for understanding its uniqueness and rarity – stones from known deposits are usually valued higher.
