Lab created diamonds are 100% real diamonds and are identical to mined diamonds - chemically, optically, and physically. Lab created diamonds have the same carbon crystal chemical structure as a mined diamond and are just as durable.
The main difference between mined and lab created is how they are formed. Mined diamonds took billions of years to grow and are excavated from the Earth while lab created diamonds are grown in a highly controlled laboratory in a matter of weeks or months. Lab created diamonds possess the same mesmerizing properties of fire, scintillation, and sparkle as mined diamonds - at a fraction of the price. A lab created diamond is only discernible from a mined diamond by using highly specialized equipment.
High color and clarity grades come at a premium with mined diamonds. With lab created diamonds, you can access the best possible quality factors for a fraction of the price. For example, colorless (grade D, E or F) diamonds tend to be prohibitively expensive. But now, science makes it possible to create lab created diamonds which makes them more affordable compared to mined diamonds.
Laboratory conditions leave nothing to chance. So, your lab created stone will always possess great color and incredible sparkle.
The lab created diamonds in Love Earth jewelry are created in a highly controlled lab using two innovative, patented technologies: High-Pressure High-Temperature (HPHT) and Chemical Vapor Deposition (CVD). Both methods are sustainable and conflict free.
