I ko mākou wā, pinepine i waena o nā kāhiko, hiki iāʻoe keʻike i nāʻoihanaʻoihana, i ka nānā muaʻana,ʻaʻole hiki i nā kauka keʻike i kēia mau pōhaku. Ma hope o ka mea a pau, ua hele aku kaʻikeʻepekema a hiki ke hanaʻia kēlā mau pōhaku makamae i loko o nā kūmole. Akā, e like me mākou a pau eʻike nei, akā, he waiwai ka waiwai maoli, no lailaʻaʻohe mea makemake e uku i ke kālā nui no kaʻaʻa. E nānā kākou i kaʻikeʻana i kaʻikeʻana i ke diamona mai kahi mea loliʻole, me ka nānāʻoleʻana i nā mea lapaʻau.
Pehea eʻike ai i kahi diamona maoli?
Palapala. ʻO ka hana mua,ʻo ia keʻano, i pāʻaniʻia e kahi palapala hōʻoia. Hāʻawi mauʻia iāʻoe ke kūʻaiʻana i nā mea nani ma kahi hale kūʻai kūikawā. No laila, inā ua kūʻai maiʻoe i kāu diamond ma kahi hale kūʻai nui a me ka hilinaʻi a ua hāʻawiʻiaʻoe i kahi palapala hōʻoia, a laila,ʻaʻole lawa ka pōhaku.
Aloha. Akā, ma hope o ka hikiʻole ke hōʻikeʻia ka palapala hōʻoia i ka hōʻoia pololei loa, e nānā i nā wahi'ē aʻe e maopopo ai ka diamona. Eia kekahi laʻana,ʻo kahi o nā mea maʻalahi ka māmā. Loaʻa ke kiʻekiʻe o ka hoʻohuliʻana i nā kauā, no ka mea, he nani loa i ka lā. ʻAʻohe mea hōʻolo e like me ka pua.
Ke kuhihina. ʻO kahi ala kūpono eʻike ai i ka diamona mai kahi aniani, akā ināʻaʻole he kahawai. E kau i kahi pōhaku ma luna o ka nūpepa a ināʻoe eʻike a heluhelu paha, e nānā paha, no ka mea,ʻaʻole ia he diamona,ʻo ia ka aniani.
Nā pōʻino. ʻO ka diamond he pōhaku maoli, no ka mea,ʻaʻole hiki ke kūpono, akā i kekahi manawa uaʻikeʻia kēlā mau mea.
Hehe o ka hanu. ʻAʻole hiki ke diamond i ka pua. E hālū i ka hanu ma laila aʻike i ka loaʻaʻana o ka pōhaku i kekahi mau kekona kekona, a laila he'alokelo kāu.
Ultraviolet. E kau i ke diamona ma lalo o ke kukui ultraviolet. ʻO ka pōhaku maoli i loko o kona mālamalama e loaʻa i ka polū aiʻole e kokoke i ke aka. E hoʻomaka ka hōʻailona e'ālohila me ka'ōmaʻomaʻo, keʻano'ōmaʻomaʻa a hina.
ʻO ka paʻakikī. ʻO keʻano kūpono hoʻi o kaʻikeʻana i ke diamona mai kahi zirconia cubic a iʻole ka moissaniteʻo ke aniani a me ke one. E like me kouʻike,ʻo ke diamona kekahi o nā meaʻoi aku ma luna o ka honua aʻo ia keʻokiʻoki i nā aniani, akāʻo ka'ōwiliʻana me keʻano paʻakikī, heʻanoʻole. Hiki nō hoʻi ke lawe i kahi sandpaper ma luna o ka pōhaku:ʻaʻole e kauʻia nā hoailona ma ke diamond, akā, e kau ana lākou ma kahi lūlū.
