Spotting fake amethyst 😲 | Crystal Dupes

Trusting your gut instincts is crucial but it’s equally important to back it up with research 🫶🏻
If you’re new to the Crystal world always ask your supplier, shop, or vendor questions about anything you want to know! It can save you a lot of money if you’re not so convinced about the authenticity of a Crystal.
Ask questions, there’s no such thing as a stupid question 🫶🏻
And please be aware when buying Amethyst from China even if they say they got it from Brazil 🚩

Did you do a scratch test? Amythest has a mos hardness of 7. If it scratches against a coin, they are likely fake.

[@NoxusGr01]

Glass is 6.5 on Mohs scale, it will not be scratched by a coin (which is 3 - 4 at the best).

[@user-zp5pm5yq9w]

I have here a stone, I don't know if this is really amethyst

[@White.3]

[@tinievillarico2770]

Glass pala yan

[@SoccerNutTV]

You need to lick it. If it tastes like stone it's real. If it tastes like plastic then it's fake.

[@terrancephillips5798]

Uh, that’s real amethyst. Nobody’s faking amethyst, it’s quite common and not particularly expensive. Those are all real amethyst crystals. 🤦🏻‍♂️

[@Kaishelalsvv]

It doesn't depend on the price, It IS faked. by the details on the crystal, I'm sure you'd understand.

[@terrancephillips5798]

@@Kaishelalsvv These crystals depicted here are 100% genuine amethyst crystals, GTFO. Do you think people are faking crystals as hobbies and not to make money? Again, pull thy head out of the rumpus.

[@terrancephillips5798]
