About Lab-Grown Diamond

What Are Lab-Grown Diamonds?

Lab-grown diamonds — also known as man-made, engineered, or cultured diamonds — are real diamonds created in controlled laboratory environments using cutting-edge technology that replicates the natural diamond-growing process.

Just like mined diamonds, lab-grown diamonds are made of pure crystallized carbon, with the same chemical, physical, and optical properties. The only difference is their origin — one grows underground over billions of years, and the other grows in a lab over a few weeks.

How Are Lab-Grown Diamonds Made?

There are two main methods:

1. HPHT (High Pressure, High Temperature)

Mimics the intense pressure and heat of the Earth’s mantle to form a diamond crystal.

2. CVD (Chemical Vapor Deposition)

Uses carbon-rich gas in a vacuum chamber to grow a diamond layer by layer.

Both processes produce genuine diamonds — not imitations like cubic zirconia or moissanite.
