Our website exclusively features ethically-sourced lab-grown diamonds at affordable prices, of which we’re proud to offer.

A lab-grown diamond, also referred to as man-made, lab-created, cultured, or cultivated diamond, is produced in a controlled laboratory setting instead of being mined underground. This process is managed by humans rather than occurring naturally through geological processes. In truth, lab-grown diamonds offer a flawless and cost-effective alternative to mined diamonds. Explore further insights into lab-grown diamonds.

Lab-grown diamonds are indistinguishable from mined diamonds in terms of their physical, chemical, optical, and atomic properties. The only distinction lies in their origin: lab-grown diamonds are created above ground rather than below ground. They possess all the characteristics of genuine diamonds, making them authentic in every aspect. In contrast, diamond simulants like moissanites and cubic zirconia may resemble diamonds in appearance but lack the identical chemical and physical properties found in mined diamonds.

In the creation of lab-grown diamonds, a diamond ‘seed’ is placed within a carbon-rich environment inside a highly advanced growth chamber. Through our proprietary growth method, the seed progresses into a rough diamond. Subsequently, the rough diamond undergoes planning, laser cutting, polishing, and finishing, mirroring the process employed with mined diamonds. This transformation results in the creation of a beautiful, dazzling gemstone. Explore further insights into lab-grown diamonds.
Indeed, our lab-grown diamonds are sourced ethically. Produced within our controlled laboratory environment, these diamonds are entirely conflict-free, eliminating the need for extensive earth mining. We adhere strictly to local labor regulations, including those concerning child labor, ensuring a responsible manufacturing process. Moreover, the creation of our lab-grown diamonds is devoid of any contribution to violence, support for warlords, involvement with corrupt governments, or any other form of human rights abuses.

We ensure the authenticity and quality of our lab grown diamonds through certification cards issued by renowned independent certification companies such as IGI (International Gemological Institute) and GIA (Gemological Institute of America).
