Faqs
WHAT IS LAB GROWN DIAMOND?
HOW LONG DOES IT TAKE TO CREATE LAB GROWN DIAMONDS?
Typically, lab grown diamonds are take up to a week to form. Compared to the natural process, which takes billions of years for diamonds to form and enter the Earth’s surface, it is an incredibly quick process!
WHAT ELSE ARE LAB GROWN DIAMONDS KNOWN AS?
Lab grown diamonds are referred to as synthetic diamonds, man made, lab created, engineered, cultivated and cultured diamonds.
ARE SOLITAIRE LAB DIAMONDS ARE GIA CERTIFIED?
Yes. Solitaire lab diamonds are certified by independent diamond grading labs, and have an inscription that matches the number on the laboratory certificate. Learn more about certification process here.
ARE LAB DIAMONDS REAL DIAMONDS?
Yes, they are. Lab grown diamonds are made in a lab by scientists and share the same physical, atomical and chemical properties as their mined counterparts. They also look exactly the same as natural diamonds and are equally as beautiful. Lab created diamonds are nearly impossible to differentiate from natural diamonds with the naked eye.
DO LAB CREATED DIAMONDS GET CLOUDY?
No, a real diamond, whether lab created or mined, will not appear cloudy over time. While this can happen to diamond simulants, lab diamonds are 100% real and identical to mined diamonds - and neither will lose clarity over time. If you notice your diamond looks cloudy, it probably just needs a good clean (ideally with washing up liquid!) to remove dirt or oil from the surface.
