<p>[QUOTE="Cindy MotZ, post: 111968, member: 1508"]My sister has purchased a hardness tester, on eBay I think. It's a pocket sized battery operated device that checks the hardness and you can compare it with a chart that will tell you the established levels of each type of stone. Might not be for everyone. (My sister and spouse love stone jewelry and it's helped them from getting ripped off in places where they know you can't come back...)[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
