The Modern Diamond
Lab-grown vs. natural diamonds
A lab-grown diamond is, in every measurable sense, a diamond. Crystallographically, optically, and chemically identical to a stone formed deep within the earth — but grown above ground, in a matter of weeks, through one of two refined processes: High Pressure High Temperature (HPHT) or Chemical Vapor Deposition (CVD).
The result is exceptional brilliance, perfect clarity, and a stone whose provenance can be traced from atom to setting — without the environmental disruption or human toll often associated with mined diamonds.
