FORMATION METHOD:
- ARE LAB GROWN DIAMONDS REAL? The response is unequivocal: Yes.
- LAB GROWN DIAMONDS: This type of diamond is synthesized in a laboratory by artificial means to simulate the growth environment of Natural Diamonds, using high temperature and high pressure technology. Specifically, after the seed diamond is placed in a vacuum chamber, a specific chemical reaction process is carried out to make the carbon atoms form the crystal structure of the diamond.
- NATURAL DIAMONDS: It is formed naturally through geological processes over hundreds of millions of years. Its formation conditions are extremely harsh, requiring a high temperature and high pressure environment as well as specific chemical composition and geological structure.
PRICE AND MARKET POSITIONING:
- PRICE COMPARISON: The price of Lab Grown Diamonds of the same quality is about 10%-30% of that of Natural Diamonds.
- CONSUMPTION SCENARIOS:
- Natural Diamonds: focus on emotional value scenarios such as weddings and collections. The larger the carat, the higher the value preservation potential.
- NATURAL DIAMONDS: Focuses on emotional value scenarios such as marriage and collection. The larger the carat, the higher the value preservation potential.
PHYSICAL AND CHEMICAL PROPERTIES:
- HARDNESS AND WEAR RESISTANCE: Lab Grown Diamonds is almost the same as Natural Diamonds in physical properties and both have extremely high hardness. Therefore, from the perspective of hardness, Lab Grown Diamonds is less likely to be scratched or damaged during wear.
- CHEMICAL STABILITY: Lab Grown Diamonds is also chemically very stable and is not easily attacked by most chemicals in the everyday environment.
- The optical properties of Lab Grown Diamonds are similar to those of Natural Diamonds, reflecting and refracting light to create beautiful fire and sparkle.
IDENTIFICATION AND CERTIFICATION SYSTEM:
- IDENTIFICATION METHOD: Professional instruments can distinguish through trace elements (such as differences in nitrogen content), crystal growth lines and other characteristics, but they cannot be distinguished by the naked eye.
- CERTIFICATE OF AUTHORITY:
- Natural Diamonds Mainstream Certificate: GIA (Gemological Institute of America).
- Lab Grown Diamonds Mainstream Certificate: IGI (International Gemological Institute), the certificate will indicate "Laboratory-Grown".
