Are there any clear distinctions? And what is generally the price difference? I want a ruby engagement ring and am considering both lab created and genuine. Thank you!

  1. The person above me got it right....lab created rubies have a pinkish color, while genuine rubies have a deeper and richer red color. I can tell the difference, I think almost anyone can. If you go to a jewelry store you can have them show you the difference. I used to work at Samuels Jewelers and the only sold lab created...they were definitely fake looking.


  2. Lab created are cheaper and are fake in color, where as genuine rubies are real in color, unique and therefore, more expensive. You should go see some jewelers to see the difference and prices for yourself.
