A lab grown diamond has the same physical, chemical, and optical properties as a natural diamond, but it's created in a lab using technology that replicates the conditions in which natural diamonds form. Lab grown diamonds are the real deal! Check out our lab grown vs natural diamond guide for everything you need to know to make an informed choice.

Absolutely! Explore our sustainability promise and find out why lab grown diamonds are a more sustainable and ethical choice compared to natural diamonds.

Yes, lab grown diamonds can be certified by the Gemological Institute of America (GIA). However, GIA is predominantly used for mined diamonds. We use the International Gemological Institute (IGI), the world’s largest independent lab for diamond testing and grading, to certify all our diamonds. The IGI certifies more lab grown diamonds than any other institute, ensuring the highest standards for our gemstones.

Yes! Lab grown diamonds are as durable as natural diamonds. Both score a perfect 10 on the Mohs scale of mineral hardness, thanks to their carbon structure. This means they’re built to last for generations. With proper care, your lab grown diamond will stay beautiful for a lifetime!

Caring for a lab grown diamond is just like caring for any other diamond - keep it clean and keep it safe! Gently clean it with a soft cloth and mild soapy water. And when you’re not wearing it, store it in a soft pouch or box to protect it from scratches. Easy peasy!

Lab grown diamonds are considerably more affordable than natural diamonds, often priced between 60% to 80% lower for stones of comparable size, cut, and clarity. Because lab grown diamonds are created in advanced laboratories, they bypass many of the environmental and logistical costs associated with mining. This allows those choosing lab grown diamonds to invest in larger or higher quality stones within the same budget. Offering exceptional beauty, ethical sourcing, and outstanding value, lab grown diamonds have become the preferred choice for modern engagement rings and fine jewellery.
