Diamonds have long captivated hearts with their timeless beauty and profound symbolism. However, with advancements in technology, the landscape of the diamond industry has evolved, offering consumers alternatives to traditional mined diamonds. Among these alternatives are diamond simulants and lab-grown diamonds. While they may appear similar at first glance, there are significant differences between the two that consumers should be aware of when making a choice. Below, we'll unveil the secrets behind these exquisite stones and guide you on the journey to discovering the perfect one for you.

Understanding Diamond Simulants

Diamond simulants are materials engineered to mimic the appearance of natural diamonds. Popular choices include cubic zirconia (CZ) and moissanite. While CZ imitates the appearance of lab-grown and mined diamonds, moissanite possesses a unique fiery sparkle and rainbow refractions. Despite not sharing the same chemical composition and properties of natural or lab-grown diamonds, simulants offer a budget-friendly option without compromising on aesthetics.

Our Signature Simulant Diamonds are crafted to perfection, boasting exceptional grades of colour and clarity. Precisely cut to meet the highest standards set by the diamond industry, they exhibit unparalleled levels of fire, brilliance, and sparkle.

Exploring Lab-Grown Diamonds

In contrast, lab-grown diamonds represent a revolutionary approach to diamond creation. Ethically grown in a laboratory, these diamonds are indistinguishable from natural diamonds to the naked eye. They are chemically, optically, and physically identical to mined diamonds, offering the same unparalleled fire, brilliance, and beauty. Lab-grown diamonds provide a sustainable and ethical alternative to traditional mined diamonds, free from the environmental and ethical concerns associated with mining.

Our Premium Certified Laboratory Created Diamonds undergo a meticulous process, starting from a tiny lab-grown carbon seed and culminating in a diamond that rivals its mined counterpart in beauty and quality. If you value the science behind your gemstones, our Premium Certified Laboratory Created Diamonds are the perfect alternative to mined diamonds.

We curate the highest grade of lab-grown diamonds, adhering to stringent standards typically reserved for the most exquisite jewellery pieces. Our diamonds meet the following criteria:

Colour: They are colourless, achieving a minimum colour grade of F+.

Clarity: With a minimum grade of VS2+, our diamonds exhibit remarkable clarity and transparency.

Cut: Our diamonds are precision-cut to exacting proportions, with our Round Brilliant Cut stones boasting Triple Excellent or Ideal Cut status. They feature Excellent Polish and Symmetry, ensuring maximum fire and brilliance.

Key Differences: Lab-Grown Diamonds vs Diamond Simulants

  • Composition and Properties: Lab-grown diamonds possess identical characteristics to natural diamonds, while simulants like CZ and moissanite differ significantly in their chemical properties. Lab-grown diamonds are chemically identical to mined diamonds, offering the same unique properties of fire, brilliance, and hardness.
  • Hardness and Durability: Lab-grown diamonds excel in hardness and durability, offering long-lasting beauty ideal for everyday wear. Simulants like CZ and moissanite, while slightly less durable, still provide impressive resilience and sparkle.
  • Price: Lab-grown diamonds typically come at a higher price compared to diamond simulants. However, they offer exceptional value considering their identical properties to natural diamonds and sustainable sourcing practices.
