Lab-grown diamonds are created in controlled lab environments, replicating natural diamond formation at a much faster rate. Mined diamonds are formed within earth's crust over millions of years, and lab grown diamonds take just weeks to create.
Diamonds are the most popular choice of gemstone for engagement rings because they are the hardest, strongest gem. Made of pure carbon, lab grown and mined diamonds have the same chemical make-up with the only difference being their origin.
In recent years, more couples are choosing lab-grown diamonds due to their affordability. Lab-grown diamonds typically cost 20-40% less than mined diamonds, allowing couples to allocate their budget toward other wedding expenses or opt for a larger stone. This significant cost advantage has made lab-grown diamonds an increasingly popular choice for those looking to celebrate their love without compromising on quality.
