Synthetic Gemstones
Gemstones that are created artificially in a laboratory to resemble all properties of an original gemstone are called synthetic gemstones. The basic difference between natural gemstones and synthetic ones are that original gemstones may have some impurity in them, but synthetic ones have none. Synthetic stones are created under similar conditions that occur in nature, but inside a lab. Some synthetic gemstones that are available in the market are moissanite, diamond, emerald, ruby, sapphire, cubic zirconia, and alexandrite. These stones are considered genuine imitations.

"ivan is an incredibly strong fellow," remarked the general, "but he has the misfortune to be deaf and dumb. a simple fellow, but, i'm afraid, like all his race, a bit of a savage." "is he russian? " "he is a cossack," said the general, and his smile showed red lips and pointed teeth. "so am i." half apologetically general zaroff said, "we do our best to preserve the amenities of civilization here. forgive any lapses. we are well off the beaten track, you know." laughter shook the general.
