What is the difference between lab-grown diamonds and natural diamonds?
Lab-grown diamonds are real diamonds. They are chemically, physically, and optically the same as mined diamonds. Cut, polished, and graded with the same tools and processes as mined diamonds. Even professional gemologists cannot distinguish between the two without highly sophisticated devices like those developed by the Gemological Institute of America (GIA).
The only difference between lab-grown and mined diamonds is their origin. Lab-grown diamonds are created in a laboratory that relies on the same process as Mother Earth. Using advanced technology, diamond laboratories can shorten production time dramatically. More importantly, the process eliminates the need for mining.

More consumers have become aware of lab-created diamonds and the benefits over their mined counterparts in recent years. Especially the millennials are keenly aware of their carbon footprint and the potential ethical implications of mined diamonds.
Many Hollywood A-list celebrities have embraced the ethical jewelry choice of Lab-Grown Diamonds.
The trend, and rising awareness, have led to more jewelry brands using lab-grown diamonds because they understand both the benefits and the consumer demand. For example, the world’s biggest jeweler, Pandora, announced in 2021 that they are shifting from mined diamonds to lab-created diamonds as have Pandora, Ritani, Swarovski, and others.
Even the world’s largest diamond producer, DeBeers, which once had a near-monopoly on global diamond production and long fought hard against lab-grown diamonds, finally jumped on the bandwagon and founded their own lab-grown jewelry brand
The established diamond industry is a billion-dollar industry with powerful lobby groups. Throughout time, consumers have been led to believe that there is something romantic about “natural” diamonds dug up from the earth and that lab-created diamonds aren’t the real deal.
That couldn’t be further from the truth. Lab-grown diamonds are real diamonds and are entirely identical to mined diamonds. But in contrast to minded diamonds, lab-grown diamonds are guaranteed conflict-free, and you can be sure that there haven’t been any unethical work practices or harmful deforestation involved in the process.
In contrast, many lab-grown diamonds are created using renewable energy and are produced in zero-emission foundries, making them significantly more environmentally friendly than mined diamonds.
Best of all, due to the more efficient and cleaner process of creating diamonds in the laboratory, they are also cheaper to buy than mined diamonds.
