Look for flaws along with inclusions. Use a magnifying glass with at least 10x magnification to examine the Red Coral carefully. Look for specks and blemishes, as they form with minute particles of other material. These flaws are strong evidence that a Red Coral is genuine. Lab-created (fake) Red Coral have no inclusions of this nature, and neither do natural Red Coral, but if you find flaws, then your Red Coral is genuine.

Examine the gemstone for air bubbles. Essentially, lab-created Red Coral are glass that has undergone a process similar to that which forms natural Red Coral. Since they are made of glass, they retain miniscule air bubbles after formation. If there are bubbles within the Red Coral, it is not genuine. Be sure to inspect your Red Coral from every angle by turning it over. There is a possibility that bubbles of air will only be evident from a single angle.

Look at how light is reflected by the Red Coral. Turn off all the lights and shine your flashlight on the Red Coral. If it is genuine, it will only reflect light of the same hue as itself. If it is a fake, made of glass, it will reflect colors other than the natural color of the gem.
