FAQs

A lab-grown diamond is a diamond that is created in a laboratory using advanced technology that mimics the natural process of diamond formation. These diamonds are chemically, physically, and optically identical to natural diamonds but are more affordable and environmentally friendly.

Yes, lab-grown diamonds are real diamonds. They are composed of the same carbon atoms arranged in the same crystal structure as natural diamonds. The key difference is their origin – lab-grown diamonds are created in a controlled lab environment, while natural diamonds are formed over millions of years under the earth’s surface.

Moissanite is a gemstone that is often used as a diamond alternative. It is made from silicon carbide and is known for its brilliance and fire, often outperforming diamonds in sparkle. While moissanite is not a diamond, it offers a similar appearance at a lower price point.

Lab-grown diamonds are created using two primary methods: High Pressure High Temperature (HPHT) and Chemical Vapor Deposition (CVD). Both methods replicate the natural conditions that form diamonds, but in a much shorter period of time (weeks to months)

Yes, lab-grown diamonds are typically 30-40% less expensive than natural diamonds of similar size and quality. This is because the production of lab-grown diamonds is less resource-intensive and can be done more efficiently in a laboratory setting

While lab-grown diamonds are real diamonds, they generally have a lower resale value than natural diamonds due to their availability and cost of production. However, they are still a valuable and beautiful option for those seeking ethical and affordable alternatives
