A red Diamond incased in clear diamond. I need another confirmation...

Really? A fuzzy pic of a black stone, no explanation as to how you found this, or where (just a country would be fine).

All I can see is a fuzzy pic of a black rock...I'm sorry, but I can't confirm anything.

Please tell us more, and also, why you believe this to be a diamond?

Very poor quality image for identification. My guess would be a garnet.

Take it to a gemologist that specializes in raw stones, a lapidary that facets gemstones. You should be able to get a definitive answer.

Time for more coffee.

Please read and follow our rules of the forum.

IMPORTANT!

When posting in "What Is It?", please give members the information they need to help identify your find:

1. Post sharp closeup photos of both the front and the back.

2. State the actual size of the item. Also, if possible, put something with it in the photo for scale: a common U.S. coin, a ruler, etc.

3. If there are any inscriptions which cannot be easily read in the photos, type them in full in your post.

4. If there are maker's marks, numbers, symbols, or other marks on the back which are not easily seen in the photo, post a closeup or a drawing of them.

5. Indicate the composition of the item. For example: "thin brass, filled with lead on the back."

• Do not deliberately withhold any information just to "have fun" seeing if members can guess correctly.

• Once your item has been identified, don't forget to mark it "Solved."

• Finally, if someone identifies your item or provides other helpful information, take time to post your appreciation— and maybe send a PM to say, "Thanks!" too.

In short, No, it's not.

Better yet, it looks like a garnet. It should be a fairly hard rock. The crystal shape is why i'm saying that. Diamonds don't have that crystal shape.

Let me welcome you to Tnet. It looks like you just took a rough initiation. Please take the advise that was given you as a tool to help you and stay with us.
That is for sure not a diamond. A couple of folks mentioned a garnet and from shape and color it likely is. But hard to tell from your picture. Look at some of the better postings on pictures, details, and measurements. Thanks for joining.

I agree 100% with the garnet ID.

 

[Rothman]

It's definitely a red diamond. You can tell because of the way that it is. Dead give-away lol!
