DO NOT FIRE!

The chart above indicates what you can generally expect to remain "colorfast" when fired, with little or no color shift, though there can always be exceptions, especially with colored CZ. The reason for this is the instability of the minerals used to create various colors. As we add compatible synthetic and natural gemstones, we will add them to the chart.

*Spinel and Corundum stones are lab grown

†Slight color shift may occur.
