THE “VERNEUIL PROCESS” WAS ORIGINALLY
DEVELOPED BY A FRENCH CHEMIST, AUGUSTE VERNEUIL IN 1902

EBAY’S DEFINITION AND EXPLANATION ABOUT TERMS
FOR STONES:
What is the Difference between Lab Created,
Synthetic and Simulated Gemstones?
Lab created, Lab gro wn and synthetic are synonymous terms. To
use either of these terms, according to the FTC, the gemstone must be
identical to the natural in every way: Chemical Composition, Hardness, and
Optically.
Below is an excerpt from the FTC guidelines for gemstone sales
for your reference.
“It is unfair or deceptive to use the word;
laboratory-grown, laboratory-created, [manufacturer name]-created, or synthetic with
the name of any natural stone to describe any industry product unless such
industry product has essentially the same optical, physical, and chemical
properties as the stone named.”
The key is that Lab Created and Synthetic are identical to the
natural. Only difference being it is not from the earth.
No Lab Gemstone is RARE, as the rough can be made anytime.
