  • Page 6 This test shows that the detector has identified your lab grown diamond and is working correctly. It is recommended to check the sample diamond every day. You can use our sample diamond or any other sample that you have, so long as you know for a fact that it is an actual Lab grown diamond. After the test, you can save the result or press the back arrow to perform another test.

  • Page 10 When inserting jewelry into the drawer you need to press the RING icon in order to perform the test. When inserting loose diamonds into the drawer – you also need to press the RING icon as well in order to perform the test. If the resulting image shows too much red and you cannot distinguish between the diamonds –...
  • Page 11 Please pay attention: The diamonds in the pictures you are about to see in the next 3 pages, are positioned with the table facing down. This is done for the photographic purposes. We recommend, when testing loose diamonds, to position them on the pavilion side shown in the example picture below.
  • Page 12 In order to know if a diamond is natural or lab grown please follow these rules: Natural diamonds results: ONLY blue or light blue colors Any diamond that shines means it’s a natural without any red marking diamond! (Any shade of blue) All the following are examples of NATURAL DIAMONDS...
  • Page 13 If the diamond shows any other color or red marking – it is a lab grown diamond. It is either CVD or HPHT grown. There are a few different results that you may see from the detector – all of the below results indicate that the diamond is a Lab Grown Diamond RED.
  • Page 14 More Examples of results of lab grown diamonds Results of lab grown diamonds in jewelry: The center stone and the red marked stones are lab grown diamonds. The blue stones are Natural diamonds.
  • Page 15 Reading the results With most diamonds the results are very clear. If the stone is marked in red- the diamond is a lab grown diamond. If the diamond is not marked in red – you need to make a decision. Is it BLUE or NOT BLUE?
  • Page 16 Detection errors: To-date, 99.9% of all known lab grown diamonds that we have checked were detected by the Sherlock Homes as lab grown diamonds. False positive situations: A minute amount of natural diamonds will be marked by the detector as lab grown diamonds even though they are natural diamonds.
  • Page 17 There are also other natural diamonds that may show irregular results. (Blue fluorescence and partial red marking or fully marked red color). They are very rare. We did not encounter natural diamonds with a NON BLUE fluorescence and red marking. This means that if the diamond shows a NON blue fluorescence and shows red marking, it is a CVD lab grown diamond as per our testing.
  • Page 18 Detecting CZ (Cubic Zirconium) and Moissanite – in loose stones. The Sherlock Holmes can be very helpful in detecting CZ, Moissanite and diamond coated CZ and Moissanite in loose stones only! The diamond coated CZ and Moissanite show the exact same results as the regular non-coated CZ and Moissanite.
  • Page 19 The 4 stones on the right-hand side are suspicious to be simulants as they hardly show any color with the bottom lamp NOT covered. In this case – please cover the bottom lamp with the black cover and recheck. Natural Lab Grown Moissanite Cubic zirconium...
  • Page 20 General note: A useful tool when in doubt is the regular long UV fluorescent test. Lab grown diamonds do not show, in general, a reaction to exposure of a regular jeweler's UV light. So in case of a doubt- if a stone shows fluorescence under your regular UV light- it is most likely a natural diamond.
  • Page 21 If you are done testing-press the HOME button to go back to the main screen. You may press the HISTORY icon to see the saved results. To see the saved results, press the HISTORY icon in the main home screen. The pictures are stored in the order they were taken.
  • Page 22 Notice: The Sherlock Holmes detector provides a convenient and quick method of detecting synthetic diamonds. Sherlock Holmes has an accuracy rate of approximately 99%. It is not a substitute for gemological laboratory analysis. Inaccurate results may be caused by new technologies by which synthetic diamonds are created, or irregular features in either natural or synthetic diamonds, or other errors.
