After understanding the difference in crystal grades, how can we quickly identify different grades of crystals in practice? Here are some practical identification tips to help you make an informed choice when choosing crystals:

1. Observe the transparency of the crystal

The transparency of the crystal is an important indicator of the identification grade. Generally speaking, the higher the transparency of the crystal, the higher the grade. You can place the crystal under a light source and see how transparent it is. For crystals with high transparency, light can penetrate the entire crystal, while for crystals with low transparency, light is blocked or scattered.

2. Check the crystal for blemishes

There may be some imperfections in the crystal, such as cotton wool, ice cracks, mine shortages, etc. The crystal with fewer blemishes will be graded. You can take a closer look at the appearance of the crystal and see if there are any visible blemishes. Some imperfections may affect the beauty and value of the crystal, while others may have an impact on the crystal’s energy and efficacy.

3. Feel the power of crystals

Crystals have unique energies that can have an impact on the human body. You can hold the crystal, close your eyes, and feel the energy of the crystal. The stronger the crystal, the higher the level. Some crystals may feel calm and relaxed, while others may feel excited and energized. You can choose the right crystal according to your feelings.

4. Consult a professional

If you are unsure how to grade crystals, you can consult an ICIA-certified expert. Experts can help you determine the grade and value of crystals based on factors such as the crystal’s appearance, transparency, and flaws. You can also ask ICIA-certified merchants for information about crystals when you buy them to ensure that you are purchasing authentic crystals.

Through the above identification skills, you can quickly and accurately determine the different grades of crystals. When buying crystals, you can choose the right grade of crystals according to your budget and needs. If you buy crystals to wear or collect, then you can choose a high-grade crystal. If you are buying crystals for feng shui or energy healing, then you can choose crystals with strong energy. No matter what grade of crystal you choose, make sure you are buying genuine crystals and follow the relevant precautions when wearing or using them.
