I''ve tried searching through old threads, but I haven''t found one that offered me much guidance. Please help!
I''m going to an auction tomorrow. I know they have real jewelry and sometimes REALLY great deals. I''d like to know what I''m looking at. Is there a quick and relatively easy way of identifying a REAL stone? I''ll be mostly looking at amethyst and tourmaline. Oh, and to add to the difficulty, I don''t have a loupe.
Any help would be greatly appreciated! TIA!!
*fingers crossed*
