Find your lab-grown diamond jewelry

Lab grown, lab created, lab made: what is the difference?

There is no difference. Lab grown, lab created, and lab made all describe a diamond grown in a lab instead of formed in the earth. A lab-grown diamond has the same carbon structure and the same physical and optical properties as a mined diamond. It is not a simulant.

How lab-grown diamonds are graded

Lab-grown diamonds are graded on the same four Cs as mined diamonds: cut, color, clarity, and carat weight. A grading report from an independent gemological lab records those details. Ask us to show you the report for any stone you are considering, and we will walk you through it in plain terms.

What to expect on price

Lab-grown diamonds usually cost less than a mined diamond of the same size and quality. The gap varies by carat weight and grade. Because we carry both, we can show you a lab-grown and a mined stone side by side so you can compare what fits your budget. Prices are on each product page or by phone at (812) 479-0252.

FAQs

Is lab created the same as lab grown?

Yes. Lab grown, lab created, and lab made all mean a diamond grown in a lab. They describe the same product and have the same properties as a mined diamond.

Are lab grown diamonds real diamonds?

Yes. A lab grown diamond has the same carbon structure, hardness, and sparkle as a mined diamond. It is not cubic zirconia or moissanite.

How can you tell a lab grown diamond from a mined one?

Not by eye, and not with a loupe. It takes specialized lab equipment. That is why we recommend a grading report, which states how the stone was made.

Do lab grown diamonds last as long as mined diamonds?

Yes. Both are a 10 on the Mohs hardness scale, the highest rating. With normal care, a lab grown diamond holds up the same way a mined one does.

Are lab grown diamonds worth it?

They are a good fit if you want more diamond for your budget. Keep in mind that, like most jewelry, resale value is limited, and it is generally lower for lab grown diamonds than for mined ones. If that matters to you, ask us about it in the store.
