Is rhinestone jewelry real?

1 Answer
Is rhinestone jewelry real?
No, rhinestone jewelry is not real in terms of its gemstones, as rhinestones do not occur naturally. Instead, manufacturers produce them from crystal, glass, acrylic and other materials. However, rhinestone jewelry may still feature genuine precious metal or metal plating. Explore a large collection of jewelry on 1stDibs.
