fake diamond
Imitation precious stone
A fake diamond is any stone or material made to resemble a genuine diamond without being one.
This includes cubic zirconia, moissanite, glass, and lab-created simulants.
The term typically implies intent to deceive or at least to achieve diamond's appearance at lower cost: She couldn't tell if the ring had a real diamond or a fake.
Distinct from synthetic diamonds, which are chemically identical to natural ones.
