The quality of it being flawless is absolutely correct and should be a first indication. It doesn't take much it just takes a 10x decent magnifier. Another way is the density of the stone. Synthetic in general is denser then a natural stone of the same carat size but sometimes it's hard to compare stones if you don't have a real stone of equal carat size to weigh against. Not always true but this depends on the dealer but a good indication is price. You'll notice a tremendous price difference between synthetic and natural for the given carat size. One other method which should be considered as only secondary is a UV light test. This test use to be better validated but the lab experts of synthetic have gotten much better at perfecting the reddish-purpleish light that comes off a real emerald while under a UV light.

Fake Emeralds are nearly perfectly flawless. Natural Emeralds normally have flaws which usually show up under magnification. The larger Emeralds usually have more and larger flaws.
But not always. Museum quality Gemstones can be big and flawless.
Currently, most Columbian emeralds are more included than African ones.
