Lab Grown Diamond Guide
Lab-grown diamonds are real diamonds created using advanced technology that replicates the natural diamond-growing process. They offer the same beauty, brilliance, and durability as mined diamonds—but with a more ethical and eco-friendly footprint.
What Are Lab-Grown Diamonds?
Lab-grown diamonds are real diamonds produced in controlled laboratories using high-pressure, high-temperature (HPHT) or chemical vapor deposition (CVD) methods. They have the same chemical composition, structure, and sparkle as natural diamonds.
How Lab-Grown Diamonds Are Made
1. HPHT (High Pressure, High Temperature)
This method mimics the natural diamond formation deep within the Earth, using high heat and pressure.
2. CVD (Chemical Vapor Deposition)
A diamond seed is placed in a controlled chamber where carbon atoms slowly form a diamond layer by layer.
Both processes create genuine diamonds—identical in brilliance and durability.
