The Diamond Tester: What Passes and What Doesn’t
There’s lots of talk about diamond testers lately! From those just learning that Moissanite can “pass” as diamond to teenagers testing their teachers rings (OMG), the intrigue seems pretty universal. But are “diamond testers” all they are cracked up to be? And how can you know what you have on your finger? I’m here to let you in on the inside scoop:
What is a diamond tester?
When someone refers to a “diamond tester”, most people mean a handheld “pen” tester that measures a gemstone’s thermal conductivity. In other worse, how a gem handles heat. These testers use a small metal point which, when put on a gem’s surface, measure how quickly heat travels through the stone. People use these to test diamonds because diamonds have super high conductivity.
Do Diamond testers really work?
Diamond testers can be a helpful tool as part of a multi-stage test, but should not be solely relied upon. These little pens are a helpful way to separate out CZ from diamond. But that should be the beginning and end of their use. Why? Because other gems also have high conductivity (such as moissanite) and because the testers themselves notoriously malfunction. Reasons I have seen these testers fail include user error (stones will not test correctly if the point touches metal), low battery, or age/abuse of the pen.
Can fake diamonds pass diamond tester?
Yes, some diamond simulants can pass a diamond tester. For example, moissanite, a man made gem, may pass as a diamond on a standard tester pen. This is because moissanite also has very high thermal conductivity! Other diamond simulants, such as CZ, will not pass the tester. So, it’s important to use multiple tests to confirm your stone!

Diamonds and Diamond Testers
How do Jewelers tell if diamonds are real?
The major tests jewelers use to tell real diamonds from other white stones are confirming they are singly refractive, have 10/10 hardness, and super high conductivity. Moissanite is doubly refractive under magnification, which easily separates it from diamond. CZ, white sapphire, and white topaz do not have high conductivity using a pen tester. Finally, lesser known diamond simulants do not have high hardness, which can be seen through magnification.
Does a real diamond sparkle rainbow?
Yes! Rainbow sparkle in a diamond is called “fire”. There is some misinformation out there that diamonds do not show colored light – however this is false. In fact, a diamond’s ability to show a rainbow of color is one of its most prized features, and one of the reasons it is preferred by many over other white stones like white sapphire or white topaz. Moreover, diamonds show a balanced display of rainbow and white sparkle. This should be compared against moissanite and CZ’s major colored sparkle, which outshines its white sparkle.
Do lab diamonds pass the diamond tester?
Typically a lab diamond will test as diamond on a pen tester because they are pure carbon just like mined diamonds. Testing a lab diamond is a little more complicated than testing a natural diamond, however. That is because lab diamonds are grown using differing methods and over differing courses of time. This results in different crystal densities (and thermal conductivity levels). As a result, some lab diamonds (HPHT especially) may test as Moissanite on a diamond tester and require further testing.
My lab diamond tests as Moissanite, what gives!?
Ironically, just like Moissanite can test as diamond, diamond can also test like Moissanite. This is because diamonds have a range of thermal conductivity, depending upon crystal density. This is especially true for HPHT lab diamonds. So, if this happens to you, don’t immediately assume the worst. Again, these pen testers are not foolproof. Here’s what to do:
- Make sure the person who tested your stone knows how to tell diamond from moissanite without a pen tester. If your jeweler was not properly trained (or trained at all – there is actually no training required to write appraisals as a retailer) they may not know how to properly identify the stone. So, ask how they intend to test. If in doubt, locate an independent gemologist appraiser (I personally recommend NAJA).
- Check for double refraction (“doubling“) under magnification. When looking through the side facets of a Moissanite under magnification, the culet will appear doubled/fuzzy. Diamonds do not show this feature. So, this is an easy way to test for Moissanite. If your jeweler does not know what double refraction is or how to see it, you need a different jeweler.
- Look for your diamond’s certificate number under a scope. Certificate inscriptions are microscopic and have just gotten smaller over the years, so a jeweler’s loupe may not show it. Make sure to use a proper microscope to confirm your certificate number. Moissanites are not individually numbered like diamonds, so finding your diamond’s certificate number is an easy way to confirm your stone.
How do you test a lab grown diamond?
Lab diamonds can be separated from natural diamonds by reviewing the diamond’s certificate inscription underneath a scope. Lab diamonds will be marked “lab grown” or “LG”, whereas naturals will not have these prefixes. Gem scientists are also be able to tell lab diamonds from natural diamonds using advanced magnification, fluorescence, and laser techniques.
What kind of diamonds pass diamond tester?
Natural diamonds, lab diamonds, and non-diamond moissanite! This is because a handheld pen “diamond tester” actually only tests the ability of a gem to conduct heat. It does not test for whether or not the stone is, for example, pure carbon (like diamonds are). So, while the pen tester is helpful – it’s only one piece of the puzzle!

Moissanite and Diamond Testers
Can a diamond tester detect moissanite?
Some testers show a moissanite result whereas others test moissanite as diamond. It all depends upon the model of the tester. However, because of the varying levels of diamond thermal conductivity (discussed above) a test as “diamond” or “moissanite” on one of these pens only gives so much information. Once a stone tests as diamond or moissanite on a pen tester, confirming magnification tests should be performed via microscope!
Is there a moissanite tester?
There are pen testers that provide a certain result for moissanite, however, moissanite is best confirmed through viewing “doubling” under magnification. Why? Especially with the growing popularity of HPHT diamonds, which may test as moissanite on a pen tester, viewing doubling under magnification is the easiest way to conclusively separate the two. And it’s easy! Just look through the “crown” facets of the stone under a scope.
How do you test for diamond and moissanite?
There are a few options! If you’re using a pen tester, start there to rule out diamond simulants other than moissanite. Then check for certificate or doubling! Here’s how:
- Test for high thermal conductivity. Use that pen tester! Does it come up as diamond? You probably have either a diamond or a moissanite. If the stone does not have high thermal conductivity, it is likely not a moissanite or diamond.
- Check for a certificate inscription. The majority of diamonds have a microscopic engraving on their girdle which shows their certificate number. In addition, lab grown diamonds say “lab grown” or “LG”. Moissanite will not show this – so this is a great way to tell them apart!
- Check for doubling. When you look through the crown facets of a diamond, the culet (the bottom point) will be crisp and single. When you look at a Moissanite like this, it will look like it is doubled.
CZ and Diamond Testers
Can CZ pass a diamond tester?
No. Cubic Zirconia (or CZ) does not have high enough thermal conductivity to pass. So, when you test a CZ with a diamond tester, it will not show as diamond. In fact, distinguishing CZ from diamond is one of the most important uses of thermal conductivity pen testers.
How can you tell a real diamond from a CZ?
Real diamonds test as diamond on thermal conductivity testers and most have microscopic laser inscriptions. Those are the two easiest ways to test between diamond and CZ. More nuanced tests include “pavilion flash” and “heft” – both of these require the stone to be loose. To test for pavilion flash, put your stone point side up and flash a penlight over it. If the stone flashes blue, the stone is likely CZ. And, to test for heft, weigh the stone in your hand. If it feels “too heavy” for its size, it is likely CZ (CZ weighs about twice as much as diamond).
White Sapphire and Diamond Testers
Do white sapphires pass a diamond tester?
No. White Sapphire does not have high enough thermal conductivity to pass. And, white sapphire looks quite different than diamond, moissanite, and CZ, so using a pen tester is not common. Whereas the high conductivity gems show rainbow sparkle, white sapphire shows white and silver sparkle. It also tends to have a silvery undertone. So, these are often easier ways to spot sapphire from diamond.
How could you tell a white diamond from a white sapphire?
Whereas diamond will pass a pen test and have rainbow sparkle, white sapphire will not pass and has white and silver sparkle. Sapphire is usually faceted differently than diamond, as well, with rectangular facets on the bottom of the stone. Finally, more nuanced tests include finding the “refractive index” of the gem. Notably, white sapphire’s refractive index also helps to distinguish white sapphire from white topaz!

Can you answer more of my questions about diamond testers?
Sure! While we do not offer appraisal services or gem testing services, if you have questions about why your stone is testing the way it is, I’d be happy to answer them! And, as always, the best way to protect yourself in this once in a lifetime purchase is to choose a reputable jeweler to buy your diamond or moissanite from (hint hint: check out our reviews on Facebook, The Knot and Wedding Wire)!
White Sapphire vs Diamond
Choosing between white sapphire vs diamond is one of the more common dilemmas our couples come up against. How to choose? Can you tell the difference? What is the benefit to choosing diamond vs white sapphire anyway? While both of these stones are beautiful, natural, and durable – there are some major differences between them, too! Find out which gem is right for you below!
White Sapphire vs Diamond: The Look
Can you tell the difference between Diamond and White Sapphire?
Yes. There is a huge visual difference between Diamond vs White Sapphire. While both gems are colorless (or “white”), they differ quite noticeably in terms of their “brilliance” (white sparkle) and “fire” (colored sparkle). Also, they differ in terms of how they handle dirt and oil. That said, each gem has its own unique look and beauty!
Do White Sapphires sparkle like Diamonds?
No. White Sapphire’s sparkle is a silvery white-gray, whereas Diamond’s sparkle is rainbow colored with some white mixed in. This is due to Diamond’s high refractive index and dispersion (two measures for how a gemstone handles light). Remember those prisms you played with as a kid? Just like that! So, White Sapphire handles light by returning a more muted silvery sparkle. And, Diamond handles light by returning a rainbow of glittering sparkle. This is important in terms of look, as well as planning for ring cleaning/upkeep. In other words, a Diamond’s high Refractive Index (RI) allows it to sparkle through dirt and oil, whereas White Sapphire’s lower RI means it need more regular cleaning to keep it brilliant.
| Refractive Index (White Light) | Dispersion/Fire (Colored Light) | |
| Diamond | 2.42 | .04 |
| White Sapphire | 1.77 | .018 |
How can you tell a White Sapphire?
You can tell a White Sapphire from a Diamond, CZ, and Moissanite by its more muted, silvery sparkle. It’s also way heavier! You can tell White Sapphire from other white gemstones, such as White Topaz, Rock Crystal (White Quartz), or Paste (white glass used in jewelry) by its crisp facet edges. That is because White Sapphire is an incredibly hard gemstone at 9/10 on the Mohs Hardness Scale! So, it stands up to wear and tear much better than Topaz, Quartz, or Paste (which will show micro chipping called “abrasion” on its facet edges more readily).
White Sapphire vs Diamond Side by Side
Side by side, White Sapphire looks less brilliant than Diamond. Next to White Sapphire, Diamond’s sparkle appears much more colorful.
White Sapphire vs Diamond: What’s Right for You?
In order to choose the right stone, couples should consider what “look” they are going for. Is it sparkle? What kind of sparkle? Or do you want a big size? Ease of wear? How does cost factor in?
What are the benefits of White Sapphire?
White Sapphire is elegant, durable, comes in large sizes, and is incredibly affordable. In addition, those who believe in gemstone lore will love White Sapphire for its ability to bring clarity to your mind. Finally, Sapphire has a royal pedigree, bringing a unique level of sophistication to a White Sapphire engagement ring.
What are the benefits of wearing Diamond?
Diamond is mega brilliant, supremely durable, highly sought after, and shines through dirt, oil, and even in low light. Those who love gemstone powers will also love that Diamond brings you strength. Finally, given Diamond’s legacy as the gift of love and status, a Diamond also carries with it better long-term investment potential.
What are the drawbacks of White Sapphire vs Diamond?
The biggest drawbacks to White Sapphire are lower sparkle and need for more frequent cleaning to keep it brilliant. But, in exchange, you get a larger stone for less money.
What are the drawbacks of Diamond vs White Sapphire?
Cost! Diamonds are significantly more money than White Sapphire, and you get a smaller stone for your dollar. However, in exchange, you get much more brilliance and ease of wear.
White Sapphire vs Diamond Cost
Ah, the $64,000 question! White Sapphire is significantly less expensive than Diamond!
| Carat Size | GIA Certified Diamond (Round, I-color, VS2) | White Sapphire |
| .50ct (5mm) | $1,100+ | $430 |
| 1.0ct (6.5mm) | $4,000+ | $980 |
| 1.5ct (7.5mm) | $10,000+ | $1,680 |
White Sapphire vs Diamond vs Moissanite
Another common question we get is whether a couple should choose White Sapphire or Moissanite. It’s a great question because both gems are fantastic diamond alternatives! Both of these colorless stones offer superior hardness and lovely sparkle at a fraction of the cost of Diamond.
Which is better White Sapphire or Moissanite?
It depends. Couples looking for a natural diamond alternative should choose White Sapphire. That is because White Sapphire grows in the Earth’s crust, and it’s naturally white, too (so, it’s untreated, unlike most blue sapphire)! On the other hand, Moissanite is a man-made gem. So, if natural origin or rarity is important to you, White Sapphire is a great option.
Those looking for extreme sparkle and fire should choose Moissanite! As White Sapphire gives off a more subtle, silvery glint, couples looking for knock-your-socks-off pizzazz should definitely choose Moissanite. Its high refractive index and dispersion means it will sparkle from across the room!
White Sapphire vs Moissanite Side by Side
Side by side, White Sapphire will look more light gray than white. Next to White Sapphire, Moissanite looks like a firework.
Is White Sapphire better than Cubic Zirconia (CZ)?
It depends (I know, your favorite answer)! Cubic Zirconia is the most common diamond alternative out there, and one of the least expensive. However, it is a man made gemstone, while also being less durable and less brilliant than Moissanite. So, against the standards above of rarity and brilliance, CZ doesn’t win either contest. As a result, we choose not to sell CZ and would recommend White Sapphire or Moissanite.

The Best Diamond Alternatives in 2020
Looking for a sustainable diamond alternative for your engagement ring? You’re in good company. Many couples today are looking for something other than diamond to signify their bond. As a result, there’s a bunch of diamond alternatives to consider! Whether you want to ensure your gem is conflict-free, you want to spend less, or you just want to buck the norms, we’re here for ya. Read on to see what the newest and best diamond alternatives are in 2020!
What is a “Diamond Alternative”?
Well, it can mean different things to different people. In this post, we’re going to review white-colored gemstones that couples are using instead of natural mined diamonds. We think this will help couples that want a colorless look, without the mined diamond price. We have lots of couples that love this option! However, if you’re looking for something more colorful in your diamond alternative, there are also plenty of gemstone engagement ring options we love, too!

The Best Colorless Diamond Alternatives of 2020:
All-Over Best: Lab Diamonds
Lab Created Diamonds are the newest (and best) alternative to a natural, mined diamond. And they’re gorgeous. This is because Lab Diamonds are actually the same mineral as natural mined diamonds. The only difference is that they were born in a lab instead of the ground.
So why is it the best “diamond alternative”? Looks, hardness, and price. Lab Created Diamonds have the exact same chemical makeup as mined diamonds (not true for any other diamond alternative). Both lab diamonds and mined diamonds are pure carbon, they sparkle exactly the same, and they have the same 10/10 hardness. The only way you can tell a Lab Grown Diamond from a mined Diamond is to have it gemologically tested! I mean, I’m not sure it gets any better than this, guys. You get a real diamond for 30-50% of the price of a natural, mined stone of the same quality.
Scientific Breakthrough: Lab Diamonds
Gone are the days that “synthetic diamonds” were off-color or highly included. New scientific breakthroughs have been made and Lab Diamonds are now white, eye clean, and indistinguishable from mined stones! Check out Do Amore’s extensive selection of ethical Lab Diamonds here.
Bottom line: Lab Diamonds
Man-Made Diamonds get you the exact look you want, and the price you would prefer to pay. They are the ultimate mined diamond alternative.

Most Sparkly Diamond Alternative: Moissanite
For those looking for an even more blingy diamond alternative, Moissanite is a great pick. Because of its extreme “dispersion,” Moissanite sparkles even more than a diamond. And, it’s also incredibly hard at 9.25/10 on the Mohs Hardness Scale. This means that it will stand up to daily wear very well (only surpassed by diamond)! Finally, Moissanite is only a fraction of the price of Lab Diamonds, making it very affordable.
Scientific Breakthrough: Moissanite
For those who may have had yellow-tint complaints about Moissanite in previous years, listen up! New advancements have been made, and gem scientists have created completely colorless Moissanite! I know! I was as shocked as you. Forever One Moissanite is as colorless as an E color diamond – and quite stunning – check out Do Amore’s wide range of it here.
Bottom line: Moissanite
Moissanite is a great diamond alternative. Those choosing Moissanite should expect sparkle that looks like fireworks (way more than diamond).

Best Natural Alternative: White Sapphire
For those of you looking for a natural diamond alternative, White Sapphire is a great pick. This is because White Sapphire is natural, durable, beautiful, and super affordable! Sapphire is a 9/10 on the hardness scale. In other words, a White Sapphire will stand the test of time (and your daily life). It also comes in a range of shapes and sizes – and some can be pretty huge!
Bragging Rights: White Sapphire
One unique thing about White Sapphire is that, in addition to being natural, it is often not treated at all. What I mean by “treated” is that most Sapphire out there is heated before being cut, in order to improve its color and clarity. So, for those out there who are natural gem snobs (I can appreciate that), White Sapphire’s lack of heat treatment offers some serious bragging rights. And, who doesn’t want bragging rights in their engagement ring?!
Bottom line: White Sapphire
White Sapphire is the clear winner in terms of a natural diamond alternative. Those choosing White Sapphire should expect white sparkle only as compared with the white and colored sparkle diamond offers. Check out Do Amore’s White Sapphire collection here.
Custom Engagement Ring with 8x6mm Oval White Sapphire
Inexpensive Alternative: White Topaz
I would be remiss if I left out White Topaz! For those looking for serious value, White Topaz is the way to go. That is because Topaz is natural, durable, and incredibly inexpensive. With its cool grey-white sparkle, White Topaz offers a refined, elegant look. It also comes in some seriously big sizes, for those looking for a huge impact. White Topaz’s 8/10 hardness on the Mohs Hardness Scale additionally means that it avoids scratching pretty well. Couples choosing White Topaz should make sure to pick a protective setting, like a bezel, 6-prong, or halo to ensure it stays beautiful forever.
WHOA Value!: White Topaz
Adding a top AAA-quality one carat White Topaz to any of Do Amore’s ethical engagement ring settings will set you back less than $200! While White Topaz is not listed on Do Amore’s website, we have access to some of the most beautifully faceted top AAA-quality White Topaz in the world. If you want one, email us here. We’ll look through at least ten White Topaz of your chosen shape and size and choose the most beautiful for your ethical engagement ring.
Bottom line: White Topaz
Want a huge look for little money? White Topaz is the diamond alternative for you. However, make sure to set it in a protective setting. Those choosing White Topaz should expect grey-white sparkle, as compared with diamond’s white and colored sparkle.

White Sapphire Engagement Rings
White sapphire engagement rings are among the most beautiful, durable, and affordable ring options. They’re responsibly sourced and positively brilliant. I know a lot about sapphires and love to share my knowledge of them. If you’re looking for white sapphire engagement rings, or want to know the difference between white sapphire vs diamond, check out the tips in this guide (or just contact me or email me at care@doamore.com) – I’m more than happy to help :). For tips on pricing, be sure to read the end of this post!
White Sapphire Engagement Rings Should Cost Less
White sapphire engagement rings are the least expensive of all sapphire options. They will cost less than yellow sapphires, pink sapphires, and blue sapphires. Although white sapphires are among the more rare colors, there is a higher demand for blue sapphires.
White Sapphire Engagement Rings Are Very Durable
Sapphires are a hard and scratch resistant mineral, so white sapphire engagement rings are very durable. On the Mohs Scale of Hardness, a sapphire is rated as a 9. This makes it the second hardest natural stone used in jewelry. When comparing white sapphire vs diamond, a diamond is a bit harder, and scores a 10.
White Sapphire Engagement Rings Come in All Shapes and Sizes
Never feel restricted when choosing a sapphire center stone. They come in all shapes and sizes. Every one of our ethical engagement rings can be made with the white sapphire of your choice.

Pick AAA-Rated White Sapphires
Like diamonds, sapphires are graded based on appearance. For a sapphire, the highest quality is known as AAA (read as “triple A”). AAA sapphires typically represents the top 10% of sapphires. AAA white sapphire engagement rings will have a whiter and brighter color. The brilliance of an AAA sapphire just can’t be matched. Also, because white sapphires are relatively inexpensive, there is no reason not to go for the best AAA quality. See our selection of AAA White Sapphires>
Pick a Natural White Sapphire Stone
While synthetic white sapphire options exist, I would recommend choosing natural for a few reasons:
- Synthetic white sapphires are produced by several different companies. Each company’s color varies slightly (the color may not be the same as natural white sapphires).
- Synthetic sapphires may not be as durable as natural white sapphires.
- Natural white sapphires are relatively inexpensive. Why not go natural?
Consider Pairing Your White Sapphire with Rose Gold or Yellow Gold
Of course, white sapphires will look great in any metal. But if you really want it to stand out, consider pairing your sapphire with a rose gold or yellow gold setting. The contrasting color between the metal and white stone brings out the beauty of the setting, the side stones, and the sapphire itself. It’s a win-win for every part of your ring. If you want a similar contrast but with white gold, then consider yellow sapphire engagement rings.
White Sapphire Engagement Rings in Rose Gold or Yellow Gold look gorgeous and exquisite.
White Sapphire Pricing Examples
Below is our pricing for round white and blue sapphires (all natural and AAA rated). Because we offer some of the best value on sapphires, it is not uncommon to be quoted higher than these prices elsewhere. But make sure you’re not paying substantially more than our pricing below:
| Sapphire Carat Weight | Size (mm) | White Sapphire (Natural, AAA-rated) | Blue Sapphire (Natural, AAA-rated) |
| .66 | 5 | $530 | $1,020 |
| .83 | 5.5 | $650 | $1,360 |
| 1.1 | 6 | $830 | $1,880 |
| 1.4 | 6.5 | $1,080 | $2,760 |
| 1.65 | 7 | $1,280 | $3,880 |
| 2.0 | 7.5 | $1,680 | $4,850 |
A Tip To Test If You’re Getting Ripped Off
There are two ways to test if you are getting ripped off:
- Compare your quote to our pricing above.
- Ask for a quote on both white and blue sapphires. White sapphires should be much less expensive than blue sapphires. If they’re not, you are probably not getting a fair quote.
White Sapphire vs Diamond
There are a few distinguishing characteristics between White Sapphire vs Diamond. A natural white sapphire will be much less costly than a natural diamond of similar quality. A white sapphire will also most likely be whiter than a diamond (unless you get a D or E color diamond). However, a diamond will sparkle more than a white sapphire (if you want a stone that is as sparkly as a diamond, but more affordable, look into our Forever One Moissanite collection). As far as longevity, both white sapphires and diamonds are going to last for a very long time. In fact, on Mohs Scale of Hardness, diamonds, moissanite, and sapphires lead the way with all of the other gemstones falling behind.
| White Sapphire (AAA Quality) | Diamond (GIA Certified, G-Color) | |
| Hardness (Mohs Scale) | 9.0 (Second Hardest Gemstone) | 10.0 (Hardest Gemstone) |
| Pricing (6mm, High Quality, Colorless) | $830 | $2900+ |
| Natural | Yes | Yes |
| Scratch Resistant | Yes | Yes |

When customers ask me to find a white sapphire for them, I get very excited. I’m super picky about selecting the most beautiful sapphires and always make sure they’re cut very, very well. A white sapphire that is cut well will offer more sparkle than a normal sapphire, providing the best of both worlds. While it will still look different than a diamond, this is a good thing because sapphires make absolutely beautiful engagement rings.
Final Thoughts on White Sapphire Engagement Rings
In summary:
- White sapphires are relatively inexpensive so always pick AAA-rated, natural white sapphires.
- Make sure you’re getting a fair quote by comparing your quote to our pricing table above.
- Finally, always have your jeweler perform a visual inspection of your sapphire before setting it in the ring.
