Understanding the Affordability and Quality of Lab-Grown Diamond Rings

Lab-Grown Diamond Rings

The last two years have seen the upheaval of the jewelry business with the introduction of lab-grown diamonds. Almost impossible to distinguish from the natural diamond, the lab-grown diamond offers consumers a combination of quality, value, and responsibly sourced origin.

The article explains the subtleties of lab grown diamond engagement rings in terms of pricing, quality, and the wide range of products available to employ under different circumstances.

Learning Lab-Grown Diamonds

Lab diamonds are produced by extremely advanced technology processes that mimic the natural process of diamond creation. Both these processes are High Pressure High Temperature (HPHT) and Chemical Vapor Deposition (CVD). Both processes create chemically, physically, and optically identical diamonds to naturally occurring ones. Even gemologists need extremely advanced equipment to differentiate between them.

Affordability of Lab-Grown Diamonds

The greatest advantage of lab diamonds is that they are very cheap. On average, for lab created diamond wedding ring sets, it would be 20-60% cheaper than that of the identical quality and same size as a mined diamond. The reality is that you may pay less than half the cost of a mined diamond, and you can buy a bigger or better stone for the same price, and luxury is more affordable.

For instance, a 2-carat diamond with VS1 clarity will only be around $2,800 for the lab-created diamond compared to $29,500 for the mined one. The huge price difference lets you treat yourself to the indulgence of spending your savings on other big occasions or investments.

Quality and Durability

There’s no reason to be concerned about the quality and availability of lab-grown diamonds. Lab-grown diamonds are produced with the same strength, brilliance, and fire as diamonds that have been naturally grown. They meet the same standards of cut, color, clarity, and carat weight. They are graded the same by the same laboratories—the Gemological Institute of America (GIA) and the International Gemological Institute (IGI).

Environmental and Ethical Concerns

Aside from quality and price, lab-created diamonds also have staggering environmental and ethical advantages. Traditional diamond mining has been associated with environmental degradation, deforestation, and destruction of natural habitat, as well as the accompanying treatment of the miners. Lab grown diamond halo rings use much less material and have no morality of mining.

Purchasing Lab-Grown Diamond

The fact that there are so many lab diamonds means that numerous pieces of jewelry can be created for numerous people and events.

  • Lab-Grown Diamond Engagement Rings: Engagement rings represent love and commitment, and by choosing stunning options while being ethical, the couple can do so. By choosing a lab-grown diamond, the couple will make their budget stronger by choosing a special setting or a bigger center stone.
  • Lab-Created Diamond Wedding Ring Sets: Lab-created diamonds can also make daily bands and engagement rings, giving your wedding ring set a lovely and matched look. The bands will possess a feature similar to the style of the engagement ring, thereby making something pretty to wear daily and to view.
  • Lab-Grown Diamond Halo Rings: Halos envelop the center stone, where there is a circle of stones enveloping it, providing maximum exposure and light to the center stone. Lab-grown diamonds now meet the fashion look of diamonds.
  • Lab-Grown Diamond Promise Rings: A promise symbol, lab grown diamond promise rings are a promise of love for those on a budget. They are the entry point to being engaged, a symbol of future commitment and love.
  • Lab-Grown Diamond Solitaire Rings: Boasting vintage sophistication, beautifully, solitaire rings feature only one lovely diamond. Showcasing the lab-grown diamond in a solitaire design accentuates the brilliance of the gem. It enables value and size to become an area of interest in keeping with vintage sensibilities.

 

Points to Remember While Shopping

Make sure you remember the following before you buy your lab-created diamond ring.

  • Certification: It is a good idea to purchase a diamond that has been verified by a recognized gemological laboratory to decide on its quality and truthfulness.
  • The Four Cs: The four main factors—cut, color, clarity and total carat weight—will show you how much your diamond is worth and how it looks.
  • Jewelers’ Reputation: Try to buy from reputable jewelers with a track record of being transparent about diamonds, and also have proven customer service.
  • Personal Taste. Select a style that resonates with you and commemorates this special occasion in a meaningful way.
