How to determine if a bracelet is made from genuine lava stone?

In my recent blog, I explored how to ascertain if a bracelet is made from authentic lava stone. I found that real lava stones have a rough texture and are lightweight. Their porous surface can absorb essential oils, which synthetic stones can't do, adding another layer to their authenticity test. I also discovered that genuine lava stones are not perfectly round or uniform in color. Finally, a significant price difference typically exists between real and fake lava stones, with the genuine ones being more expensive.
