Lab Grown Diamonds: A Complete Buying Guide

Lab Grown Diamonds: A Complete Buying Guide

Lab grown or man made diamonds have gained popularity in recent years
due to their affordability and ethical production process.
When buying lab diamonds, it is important to make an informed and confident
decision.
  • Are lab grown diamonds real?
Lab-grown diamond is a diamond grown in a laboratory using advanced
technology rather than being mined. Unlike cubic zirconia, which imitates
diamonds with a synthetic material, they are not fakes. Creating lab-grown
diamonds replicates the conditions under which diamonds form on the earth
naturally, producing diamonds that are identical chemically, physically, and
optically to natural diamonds. Like natural diamonds, lab-grown diamonds
are made of pure carbon and have the same crystal structure, hardness,
thermal conductivity, and durability.
  • How affordable are lab grown diamonds?
Diamonds grown in labs are usually more affordable than natural diamonds
since they are created in a controlled environment, resulting in a more
efficient and cost-effective manufacturing process. Lab-grown diamonds'
cost varies with their size, quality, and type, among other factors. Generally,
a lab-grown diamond is approximately 20-40% less expensive than a natural
diamond with similar characteristics.
  • Lab grown diamonds certifications and grading reports
Lab-grown diamonds are certified and graded by the same organizations that
grade and certify natural diamonds. To evaluate the quality and
characteristics of diamonds, these organizations use strict standards and
guidelines.
