About Lab Diamonds

About Lab Diamonds

Diamonds are almost indestructible and diamonds are also called a girl's best friend. Diamonds do not have such a prestigious reputation for no reason. The hardest naturally occurring substance known to man is diamond. It isn't just the toughest substance, but also it is one of the most beautiful and gleaming jewels we have ever seen.

Comparison with Natural Diamonds

Lab-created diamonds are no different from the naturally occurring diamonds. In order to create a lab diamond a ‘seed’ is taken which is then used to artificially create a diamond by two methods viz High Pressure-High Temperature (HPHT) and Chemical Vapor Deposition (CVD). Lab grown diamonds also score 10 out of 10 on the Mohs scale of hardness. The remarkable bond between the carbon atoms that make up the diamond accounts for its incredible strength.

A lot of man- made diamonds today are used for jewelry and other industrial purposes. These man-made diamonds possess the same qualities as those of its parent diamond from which the seed is incubated.

The enormous forces that give rise to diamond deep inside the earth are replicated in a laboratory environment and thus lab diamonds are formed which have the same optical, physical and chemical properties as an earth extracted diamond.

Environment Considerations

Though lab diamonds do not possess the history as it is said for their natural counterparts and the journey of man-made diamonds is also quite different, they have the same unrivalled brilliance and fire.
