Modern innovation has made lab grown diamonds possible, and they are chemically, optically, and physically the same as their earth mined counterparts. The more responsible option for a gemstone of incomparable beauty; these diamonds are made with your forever in mind.
One of the most common questions we get is “Are lab grown diamonds real diamonds?” The answer is: yes! The only difference between a lab grown diamond and an earth mined diamond is their origin and price.
A lab grown diamond is created inside a laboratory using advanced technology that mimics the natural diamond growing process, resulting in a diamond that has the same chemical, optical, and physical qualities as its earth mined counterpart.
Lab grown diamonds have the same properties as earth mined diamonds. They have the same brilliance, luster, and more. This means that it is virtually impossible to tell the difference, unless you have advanced technology used by gemologists.
Our lab grown diamonds 0.5ct and above are certified by IGI and GIA. If you want to know more about lab grown diamonds, get in touch with our team and we’ll be delighted to assist you.During the winter of 1954, the General Electric Research Laboratory first made lab grown diamonds by mimicking the processes of nature. Later on, the now-known company Pure Grown Diamonds refined the process to create diamonds of greater quality by improving its color and clarity.
At the moment, there are two known methods in creating diamonds: high-pressure high-temperature (HPHT), and chemical vapor deposition (CVD). HPHT makes use of high pressures and high temperatures that recreate the conditions in the earth’s crust for diamonds to be made. CVD on the other hand brings the particles of elements that compose diamonds together.
To conclude, lab grown diamonds are created using processes found in nature to create stones of the same physical, chemical, and optical properties.
Lab grown diamonds are made from the seed of an existing diamond, which will naturally have its own inclusions, color grade, blemishes, and more. This means that much like earth mined diamonds, lab grown ones will have their own unique cut, clarity, color, and carat size.
Like earth mined diamonds, they are verified by independent organizations like the Gemological Institute of America (GIA) and the International Gemological Institute (IGI). You may learn more about the assessment process here.
