What are Lab Grown Diamonds?

Lab-grown diamonds are chemically, physically, and optically clones of natural diamonds mined from the world. the sole difference is the origin. A lab-grown diamond, because the name suggests, is grown in an exceeding laboratory using state-of-the-art technology that replicates the natural diamond growing process.

Similar to natural diamond growth, a lab-grown diamond variates in color and clarity. they're graded on the precise same criteria as natural diamonds by independent gemological laboratories that grade earth-extracted diamonds.

How are Lab Diamonds Grown?

Chemical Vapor Deposition (CVD)

CVD diamond creation requires a highly-specialised, scientific process that has been perfected over many decades, to produce jewellery-quality diamonds in an efficient and relatively speedy way. Chemical vapour deposition is a scientific process used to create a number of solid materials, often for use in the semiconductor industry - that has been adapted to create diamonds in two to four weeks.

What is the difference between Lab Grown and Real Diamonds?

Whether it's a lab-grown or natural diamond, both are beautiful diamonds. While some may contest that one is healthier, more valuable, or holds more emotional values than the opposite, these two diamonds of various origins can’t be compared.

Diamonds hold a specific significance; it represents your story, your milestone, or that special moment. actuality significance of the diamond doesn’t dwell the origin, neither can not it be measured by its price or grading. It all boils right down to what's important to you, especially if you’re picking out diamonds for a very important occasion like a band. The diamond you decide on is the endearment it represents.

Lab Grown Diamond FAQs

The following are answers to Frequently Asked Questions About Lab-Grown Diamonds.

Two processes can create jewelry-quality diamonds: HPHT and CVD.

HPHT stands for High Pressure/High Temperature. This process mimics the way that diamonds grow in nature, subjecting carbon to high temperatures and pressing it together. This costly method requires a lot of energy.

CVD stands for Chemical Vapor Deposition, and it's not as scary as it sounds. In this process, a mixture of hydrogen and methane gas is placed in a chamber with a seed crystal. Typically, microwave power heats the chamber to a high temperature, which excites the gas. The diamond grows on the seed crystal. The CVD method is cheaper than HPHT and has become more common in recent years, as new technology has made higher-quality diamonds possible.

Some people feel that lab-made diamonds are inappropriate for an engagement ring because they're "cheap." Others say that a diamond is a diamond, whether it came from the ground or a laboratory. Still others prefer lab-made diamonds over mined diamonds for ethical and environmental reasons.

Not too long ago, a majority of consumers considered lab-made diamonds "cheap." However, attitudes are rapidly changing. About ⅔ of people aged 21-40 who are shopping for an engagement ring are now willing to consider lab-grown diamonds. Due to natural diamond sticker shock, that's not too surprising. Lab-grown diamonds average about 30-40% of the price of comparable natural ones. Plus, they look the same. With lower prices and guaranteed ethical sourcing, a lab-grown diamond is a practical and guilt-free alternative

As long as they have a nice cut, lab-grown diamonds will sparkle!

Yes. Laboratory-grown diamonds are real and are not fake diamonds. Our man-made diamonds have indistinguishable chemical and optical properties when compared to mined diamonds, even to an expert gemologist using traditional jeweler's tools. Lab created diamonds are grown by recreating the conditions underneath the Earth that result in diamond growth: pressure, heat, & carbon.

It takes 7-10 days to grow a 1 carat lab diamond, and about a month to grow a 3 carat diamond.

If you try to grow a diamond faster, the diamond crystal will fracture or develop voids, producing a grown/gray color. Thus, there is a physical speed limit to how fast you can grow diamonds.

Yes. Tarang Diamonds proudly offers GIA-graded and IGI-graded lab diamonds. If a lab diamond you have reserved currently has an IGI or GCAL report, we are happy to send it for secondary GIA grading. Some fees may apply.

Yes. Just like mined diamonds, there is a resale market for laboratory-grown diamonds. A purchaser of a lab created diamond can expect to resell their lab diamond at a similar discount to what they would receive for a mined diamond.

No. Laboratory-grown diamonds do not fade, discolor or cloud over time.
