Lab-grown diamonds, also known as synthetic or man-made diamonds, are real diamonds created in a lab using high-pressure, high-temperature (HPHT) or chemical vapor deposition (CVD) methods. They have the same physical, chemical, and optical properties as natural diamonds, but they are more affordable and environmentally friendly.

Yes, lab-grown diamonds are chemically and physically identical to natural diamonds. Both are made of carbon atoms arranged in a crystal lattice. The key difference is that lab-grown diamonds are created in a controlled environment, while natural diamonds are formed deep in the Earth over millions of years.

Lab-grown diamonds are a type of synthetic diamond, but unlike cubic zirconia or moissanite, they are made of the same material as natural diamonds—pure carbon. Lab-grown diamonds are created to mimic natural diamonds in every way, including appearance, durability, and value.

Yes, lab-grown diamonds are typically 20-40% more affordable than natural diamonds. This is because they do not involve the lengthy and costly mining process, making them a more cost-effective option for consumers.

Lab-grown diamonds retain their value well, although they may not appreciate at the same rate as natural diamonds. However, they are still a valuable asset due to their lasting beauty and durability.

Lab-grown diamonds and natural diamonds are visually identical. However, lab-grown diamonds may have a small 'laser inscription' on the girdle, which is a microscopic engraving that identifies them as lab-grown. You can also ask for a certification from reputable gemological labs that confirm the diamond’s origin.

Yes, lab-grown diamonds are considered ethical because they are not mined, avoiding the environmental and social issues associated with traditional diamond mining. They offer a more sustainable and conflict-free alternative.

Yes, lab-grown diamonds look identical to natural diamonds in every way. They have the same brilliance, sparkle, and visual characteristics because they are made of the same material, carbon, in a similar crystalline structure.

Lab-grown diamonds are just as durable as natural diamonds and will last a lifetime if cared for properly. They are resistant to scratches and wear, making them a long-lasting choice for engagement rings and jewelry.

Yes, lab-grown diamonds are considered more environmentally friendly compared to mined diamonds. The process of growing diamonds in a lab requires less land disruption and water use, making it a greener alternative.

Yes, you can customize a lab-grown diamond to suit your preferences. We offer various settings and diamond cuts, and you can choose the size, shape, and style that best fits your vision.

Lab-grown diamonds are created through either the HPHT (High Pressure High Temperature) or CVD (Chemical Vapor Deposition) methods. Both processes replicate the natural conditions under which diamonds form, allowing for the creation of real diamonds in a controlled environment.

Yes, lab-grown diamonds come with certification from reputable gemological laboratories such as IGI or GIA, which verify the quality, cut, color, and carat of the diamond.

Yes, Ouros Jewels offers a warranty on all of our lab-grown diamonds, covering defects in craftsmanship and material. Please refer to our warranty policy for full details.

Yes, Ouros Jewels offers an insurance policy for our lab-grown diamond jewelry, ensuring your piece is protected in case of damage or loss. Shipping fees may apply for repairs.

To care for your lab-grown diamond jewelry, clean it regularly with a soft cloth and a gentle cleaning solution. Avoid exposing it to harsh chemicals and store it in a jewelry box when not in use to prevent scratches.
