Lab grown diamonds are real diamonds created in advanced laboratories under controlled conditions. They are grown using High Pressure High Temperature (HPHT) or Chemical Vapor Deposition (CVD) technology, which replicates the Earth’s natural diamond-forming environment.
Yes, absolutely. Lab-grown diamonds are chemically, physically, and optically identical to mined diamonds. They have the same brilliance, hardness, and sparkle — the only difference is their origin.
Yes. Lab grown diamonds are graded on the same 4Cs — cut, color, clarity, and carat weight — as mined diamonds. When certified, they are indistinguishable from natural diamonds even under professional examination.
Every Elevé diamond is IGI-certified (International Gemological Institute), ensuring global standards for grading. Each diamond comes with a certificate of authenticity that details its cut, color, clarity, and carat.
Yes. Lab grown diamonds are a sustainable alternative to mined ones. They produce up to 85% fewer carbon emissions, involve no deforestation or ecosystem destruction, and avoid the harmful effects of traditional mining.
Lab grown diamonds typically cost 30–40% less than mined diamonds. With no mining or middlemen involved, you get a larger and higher-quality diamond for the same budget.
The only difference is where they are formed:
While lab grown diamonds may not appreciate like rare natural diamonds, they hold intrinsic value as real diamonds and are an excellent choice for buyers who prioritize beauty, sustainability, and affordability.
