Recently, Guangzhou City Industry and Commerce Bureau of the internationally famous jewelry brand Swarovski requirements off the shelf, because the industry in the local claim that their products are natural crystal, but was checked out is man-made crystal. Taiwan media heard the news immediately to visit Taiwan's industry, much attention under the title, such as "Swarovski Crystal" artificial, "" and "Swarovski Crystal" artificial "was off the shelf." Read these reports, in addition to know outside the unnatural Swarovski acrylic diamond, many consumers still do not know the difference between natural and artificial quartz crystal where there is the common market "diamond" and "crystal glass" in the end what is ?
Rhinestone = artificial crystal = crystal glass
"Crystal" was originally the term actually refers to the natural crystalline graphite (e.g. quartz), its structure may be the same as the lower left diagram a regular arrangement (referred to as "single crystal"), or the like in the middle of the structure, the arrangement However, although there are many different rules interfaces (called "polymorphs").
However, "Rhinestone" and structural "crystal glass" looks like the figure to the right then, and glass as there is no fixed rule, therefore say that they are a kind of glass is also possible, of course, they are also artificial . As a result, crystal glass can be used in the production of containers, in particular, it can do even thinner than ordinary glass, the sound is crisp and so loved by the public. The reason is because the connotation of the other material, including minerals and quartz.
Coverage of brand manufacturers actually started from an Austrian glass factory, so proud of their core technology lies in the proportion of special ingredients to manufacture glass, naturally do not take cognitive confusion by consumers to make money, but creating value on beauty. Now, however, generally the "crystal glass" called "plastic stones" It is indeed confusing. So you as a consumer I want to know, "Rhinestone" and "crystal" is artificial, but compared to diamond or crystal, they are more like glass!
