I have diamonds & other gems cut in the 1930’s. Jewlers don’t want them. Anyone know who would be interested?

synthetic diamonds
kelbo724 asked:


I found them in the garbage. I took them to a jewlery shop. They said they are real but they’re synthetic grown & cut in the 1930’s and jewlery’s come along way since then. But if they’re real, someone somewhere has got to know what I can do with them. They can’t be worth NOTHING, right?

    Try another jeweler, they must have some value if they are genuine. paste gems can look pretty real, make sure they are not paste

    They are only worth something if someone wants them and are willing to pay for it. E-Bay is a good litmus test for this.

    Just because something is old; doesn’t mean it’s worth something. They made alot of crap back in them days too.

    There is no such thing as real and synthetic at the same time. Real means Natural; as in mining from the Earth.

    Synthetic or synthetically grown ‘lab’ stones possess the same chemical and physical properties of the real stone, but was grown in a laboratory. They are called ’synthetics.’

    Simulants mean it could be anything; a green coke bottle cut to look like an emerald for example.
