Lab-Grown Diamonds
A laboratory environment that mimics the natural process of a diamond's growth is used to produce a lab-grown diamond.

Lab-grown diamonds, also known as cultivated, man-made, or even synthetic diamonds, are becoming more and more popular as engaged couples around the world choose lab-grown diamonds for their engagement ring.

Ethicality & Sustainability
Global initiatives, such as the UN's Kimberley Process, are working to eliminate mined blood diamonds from the market and have stopped 99.8% of the blood diamond traffic globally.
Choosing a lab-created diamond, then, guarantees complete transparency of the diamond's ethical origins, even though a mined diamond in the UK market is almost definitely conflict-free.
Lab-grown diamonds are a less disruptive and more environmentally friendly alternative to mined diamonds. Since lab-grown diamonds are not mined from the earth, they are thought to be more ecologically friendly, as no land needs to be utilized for the mining process.

Physical Properties
A lab-grown diamond is identical to a natural diamond in terms of appearance, chemistry, and physical properties. As a result, when examined, lab-grown diamonds will show up as genuine diamonds.
Due to their identical properties, lab-grown diamonds can be certified exactly like natural diamonds. We pride ourselves on sourcing the best diamonds from our reputable and trustworthy suppliers.
Lab-grown diamonds will last just as long as a natural diamond. Both natural and lab-grown diamonds measure 10 on the Mohs scale of hardness, making them very resistant to scratches, abrasion or breaking.
