    I in fact have purchased many of the Briolite Simulated Stones. I hae
    put them into settings and pendants/earrings They are stunning. I
    sell them as imitation diamonds (not lab created nor CZ's) I have a
    page that goes with each piece telling the person just what they
    have purchased. Mind you the person knows when you get a silver ring
    with a briolite in it for $20.00 this is not a real diamond. I do not
    mince my words with my clients, some of them just cannot afford
    anything more, so this is a very happy settlement. In fact I have
    ordered several pieces for myself and I love them. I don't care that
    they are not real diamonds I love them just for them. I think as
    long as you are not trying to pass them off as diamonds and you give
    full disclosure what is the problem of using them? Am I doing
    something wrong? I only have my clients best interests at heart. They
    do get the Briolite page telling them about the stone, when they
    purchase the item they are told it is not a diamond etc. Please let
    me know if I am crossing lines that I shouldn't cross.
