In recent years, the jewellery industry has witnessed a transformative shift. More consumers than ever are seeking lab grown gemstones—and for good reason. These man-made marvels offer the same visual beauty and chemical composition as natural stones, but with added benefits like affordability, ethical sourcing, and sustainability.

What Are Lab Grown Gemstones?

Lab grown gemstones are real gemstones created in controlled laboratory environments. Through advanced technology, scientists replicate the natural conditions under which gemstones form in the Earth’s crust. The result? A flawless, beautiful gem that's nearly indistinguishable from its mined counterpart. Whether you're eyeing a sparkling diamond or a vibrant lab grown emerald, these gems deliver stunning brilliance—minus the environmental toll.

Lab Grown Emeralds: Ethical Luxury with a Rich History

Lab grown emeralds have become especially popular for those seeking the rich green hues associated with royalty and sophistication. Natural emeralds are often plagued with inclusions and ethical concerns tied to mining practices. In contrast, lab grown emeralds boast:

• Exceptional clarity

• Vivid colour

• A significantly lower carbon footprint

• With their lush colour and accessible price point, lab grown emeralds make a perfect choice for engagement rings, birthstone jewellery, or everyday elegance.

Our favourite Engagement ring is definitely the Art Deco Lab Grown Emerald Ring in Yellow Gold, as featured above. 

Lab Grown Sapphires: Timeless Beauty, Reimagined

Why choose lab grown sapphires?

• They are chemically identical to mined sapphires

• They offer higher quality at a fraction of the cost
