Common Misconceptions About Lab Grown Diamonds – Facts vs. Myths

Lab grown diamonds are on the rise and are becoming increasingly popular in the jewelry industry. However, there are many misconceptions and myths about this sustainable alternative to natural diamonds. In this blog post, we clear up the most common prejudices and show why lab grown diamonds are a valuable investment.

Myth 1: Lab Grown Diamonds are not "real" diamonds

Fact: Lab diamonds are chemically, physically and optically identical to natural diamonds. The only difference is in the process by which they are created: while natural diamonds are created in the earth over millions of years, lab diamonds are grown under controlled conditions in high-tech laboratories. This means that they have the same brilliance, hardness and quality as natural diamonds.


Myth 2: Laboratory diamonds are of poorer quality

Fact: Thanks to modern technology, lab grown diamonds can now be grown in the highest quality. In fact, they often offer better clarity and color consistency than many natural diamonds because they grow under ideal conditions, free from impurities and inclusions.


Myth 3:
Lab diamonds are not sustainable

Fact: Compared to traditional diamond mining, lab-grown diamonds have a significantly lower environmental impact. Their production uses fewer resources, causes fewer CO2 emissions and prevents the social and environmental problems associated with mining. Anyone who chooses lab-grown diamonds is making a conscious and sustainable choice.



Myth 4: Lab Grown Diamonds Are Easy to Identify

Fact: Lab Grown diamonds are indistinguishable from natural diamonds with the naked eye. Even experienced jewelers need special tests and equipment to determine the origin of a diamond. The chemical composition and physical properties are identical, which means they radiate the same beauty and brilliance.

The market for lab-grown diamonds is growing steadily and is expected to account for over 20% of the total diamond market by 2030. More and more consumers are opting for this ethical and sustainable alternative.
