synthetic star rubies
Synthetic (i.e. Lab-made / Man-made) star rubies jump out as way too perfect looking, i.e. a perfect star, a super clean stone, and great color. If you run into any such stone, be sure to ask for a Reputed Gem Laboratory certificate. Synthetic Star Rubies are sometimes also referred to as "Lindy Star Rubies". Lindy Star Rubies were manufactured en masse by the Lindy division of Union Carbide from the 1950s to the 1970s. Since then artificial star rubies have been made in Southeast Asia. A Lindy (sometimes spelled Linde) has an ‘L’ stamped on the bottom of the stone, though other synthetics do not.
