What is Nanosital?
Nanosital is the best imitation of natural color gemstones, with unique aesthetic characteristics. Nanosital represents the finest option in terms of color, luster, hardness, density, and price.
How is nanosital produced?
Nanosital production involves melting the initial multi-component charge, followed by a crystallization heating of the semi-finished product. This technological process, as well as the trademark NANOSITAL©, are patented.
Is nanosital safe?
Yes, one of nanosital's most important advantages is that it is completely free from hazardous additives. This quality makes nanosital absolutely safe in cutting as well as when wearing it in a ready-made jewelry item.
What can be made of nanosital?
An endless range of colors, shapes and sizes of nanosital jewelry cut stones can be made upon customer request.
Is nanosital a quality material?
Nanosital is produced at the highest quality standards to such an extent that it is impossible to differentiate it from its natural analogue. As far as the price is concerned, jewelry items with nanosital cut stones are very affordable thanks to advances in technology and the high quality of production.
How clear are stones from nanosital?
Clarity and color cleanliness are among the most important characteristics of nanosital. Our technology allows us to adjust the level of transparency, to imitate natural analogues of opals, chrysoprase, chalcedony, and others. We are able to produce opaque, translucent, or semi-transparent forms of nanosital.
What color is nanosital?
Our technology allows the creation of almost any color of nanosital. We are able to imitate original color so accurately that even a gemologist won't see any difference. We can even create fancy colors which are not seen in natural stones, thereby expanding the available color range for jewelry production. Nanosital's color palette currently has more than 100 different colors, and keeps growing in response to our customers' requirements.
How is nanosital treated?
Nanosital has the most optimal hardness – 7 on the Mohs scale – making it not so hard and not too soft. This also means that nanosital's hardness is the closest to topaz's, thus all lapidary tools and technologies to treat nanosital are the same as for topaz.
Which types of difficulties can arise when cutting rough nanosital?
There have not been any registered difficulties so far. Even if you are not a highly experienced jeweler, you should not be afraid to make a mistake, due to nanosital's affordable price.
Can heat treatment be used with nanosital?
Nanosital possesses unique temperature stability, as all nanosital properties remain unchanged under heating of more than 800 degrees Celsius. A torch or a furnace can be used for heat treatment, and nanosital can also be used in wax casting technology.
Does nanosital change its color after cutting?
One of the most important characteristics of nanosital is color stability, as nanosital's color is permanent. Natural minerals may fade or tarnish, but nanosital will not.
