What are Simulated Diamonds?
Simulated diamonds, also called diamond simulants, imitation diamonds, or fake diamonds, are man-made stones that look like, or simulate the appearance of natural diamonds, but are made of material that is not carbon-based and do not have the same properties of natural diamonds. Some imitation diamonds currently on the market include cubic zirconia, Moissanite, Russian Brilliants, Diamond Nexus, white sapphire and white topaz.
