The best way is to ask for a grading certificate. But if you want to check at home then look for the color and clarity. Natural sapphires generally have inclusions and blemishes which can be seen by a loop. Even if it is heat treated a slight ratio of inclusions would be there which could be seen under magnification. Fake ones are completely clear.

∙ 15y agoAll Swarovski crystals are packaged with their logo, a swan with the words Swarovski, on a blue background. These crystals are the best in the world because they have the highest lead content. A jeweler may be able to identify whether a crystal is of this caliber. To be certain purchase your crystals directly from Swarovski.

Sapphires are a variety of corundum, one of the hardest minerals known, meaning that they will scratch glass readily. While this doesn't prove the stone is real, if it can't scratch glass, it's certainly not really sapphire.

How to tell if beads are glass or crystal?
It's not easy. If you have a lot of, say, 8mm bicones of both glass and crystal, you could weigh them (the glass separately from the crystal). The crystal should weigh more than the glass. However, if you want to tell Swarovski crystal from non-Swarovski crystal, there are a few characteristics to check. First of all, all Swarovski beads will be cut the same, whereas non-Swarovski beads will vary in cut quality, style, and facet placement. Second, Swarovski colors saturation will be consistent throughout each color and each bead. Non-Swarovski colors may fade or separate within the bead. Third, drilled holes in Swarovski beads will be centered, consistent, and not overly large in each and every bead. In non-Swarovski beads, drilled holes may be on an angle/not true vertical, may be 1mm or more in diameter, may not be centered in every bead, and you might see more than one hole drilled in, say, an 8mm cube. Finally, in the case of an aurora borealis finish, the Swarovski beads will exhibit a subtle iridescence, but the non-Swarovski beads will exhibit an obvious, coated iridescent effect.
