They are grown by a scientist in a laboratory following one of two processes: Chemical Vapor Deposition (CVD) and High Pressure High Temperature (HPHT). Both of these processes mimic the environment that a natural diamond is created in. While natural diamonds can take billions of years to form, diamonds in a lab can be created in a matter of weeks!

The lab grown diamond creation process creates a totally transparent supply chain. When sourcing these diamonds we know the lab and exact location these diamonds came from. With lab grown diamonds there is no gray area.

The chemical and physical makeup of a natural and lab grown diamond are completely the same, the only difference is origin and rarity. When sourcing lab grown diamonds our stone specialist uses the same criteria as looking through natural diamonds so we can offer a consistently high quality inventory across the board.

They sure can! Almost all of our lab grown diamonds come with a third party certification, including Gemological Institute of America (GIA) or International Gemological Institute (IGI).

Yes you can. Just like a natural diamond or gemstone engagement ring, a lab grown diamond can be insured.

If you think a natural, mined diamond is right for you then so is a lab grown diamond. They are both a 10 on the Moh’s Scale of Hardness and can only be scratched by another diamond, making them ideal for everyday wear! Just find the right ring setting for your lifestyle and you’re good to go!

While you’ve been asking for it, the diamond industry has been constantly evolving and lab grown diamonds are a big asset. While we continue to offer the Earth’s natural made stones we’re excited at the opportunity to evolve and offer something beyond.
