With the flat side down, place the stone onto the dot. Look down onto the paper through the pointed end of the diamond. The gemstone is false if it has a circular reflection within it. The diamond is real if you can't see a dot or a reflection in it.

You can do water test,

Find a normal sized drinking glass and fill it 3/4 of the way with water. Carefully drop the loose diamond into the glass. If the gemstone sinks,it's a real diamond. If it floats,it's possible it's not real. Real diamond will have more density.

Natural diamonds must be flawless but the lab-grown diamonds are synthetically produced in controlled environments and may look flawless under the magnifying glass as well. With a 1200x magnification on a power microscope, a jeweler is able to scrutinize the stone detail. You can test the diamond in a glass of water, due to the high density of diamond, when dropped into the water if it sinks it means it's real but if its floats in the water that means fake.

                                                                To know  if a diamond is real

1method - Because all you need is your eyes to perform a sparkling test, it's quick and simple. Simply place your diamond under a regular lamp and observe the brilliant glare of light that it reflects. Because it reflects white light so beautifully, a true diamond has an extraordinary shine.

 2 method- Put the stone in a glass of water and see if it sinks to the bottom. Due to its high density, a real diamond will sink, while a fake one will float on the surface or in the middle of the glass.

From a pointed end of a diamond look to observe. Missing dots and reflection is any diamond stone is an indication it is real. You can also use a diamond tester pen to test the originality of any diamond. The reading will give you a number equivalent to an original diamond. Fogging is another method of testing diamond, original diamonds clears fogs quickly than fake ones.

Real diamonds have a strong carbon atom bond so meaning it will be hard to break it. In order to know whether it's real, just put the diamond in acid, if it dissolves then that is a fake diamond since diamond cannot be dissolved in acid.

You can let the diamond's flat surface on a white piece of paper, then look at the pointed part downward. If you see a reflection in a circular shape, then it is not a legit one.

There are several ways to determine if a diamond is real. One way is to look for a certificate of authenticity from a reputable gemologist or laboratory. You can also take the diamond to a jeweler for an appraisal. Additionally, you can use a diamond tester, a device that measures the electrical conductivity of the stone, to determine if a diamond is real.

If you have a loose diamond to test, fill a regular glass about ¾ of the way full with water. Gently drop the diamond into the glass. If the diamond sinks to the bottom, it's real. If it floats at the surface or just underneath, it's likely a fake.

There are a few methods you can use to determine if a diamond is real. One of the easiest ways is to check the diamond's weight and specific gravity. A real diamond will be heavier than a cubic zirconia or other imitation stone of the same size. You can also perform a fog test by breathing on the stone and seeing if it fogs up. A real diamond will not fog up, while an imitation diamond will. Additionally, you can look at the stone under a loupe to check for inclusions or flaws, which are common in real diamonds but not in fake ones.
