A gemstone that is grown in a laboratory is not imitation or artificial. And is carefully crystallized over time. It has essentially the same optical, physical and chemical properties as a natural gemstone. Only a trained gemologist can tell them apart. Natural gemstones are crystals formed by heat and pressure within the earth. A similar heat and pressure environment is created in the laboratory using the same natural elements. This process takes 10 to 14 months to complete. The item “Retired James Avery EMERALD RING 14k Gold Apogean Tear Drop Pear Band 6¼” is in sale since Tuesday, July 07, 2015.
