Buy something under a 1.5 carat (they are weighed different though-not by carat) and you'll find something lovely. mine is a G colour. Im thrilled with it. I had mine set but the jeweller didn't do a good job. SO im looking to get it redone by a reputable jeweller. But the stone is lovely and it was under $600. It sparkles like mad under the right lights (diamonds behave the same way) ....However mossanite, like diamonds can be moddy, depending on light. if not in good light my moissanite goes flat, but so do diamonds under bad light, both rocks look like glass.

Absolutely and nobody died for it

Even De Beers is making lab created diamonds since 2018. The reason? The sales of lab created diamonds has developed such a huge market that those who sell earth mined diamonds at the higher cost are finding their customer base being eroded by those who sell lab created diamonds at a very major savings over earth mined. As a result De Beers, as a company with enough assets to allow them to undercut the prices on companies who sell lab grown diamonds, floods the market at cut rate prices in an attempt to get the price of lab grown diamonds down so low that those companies who sell the lab grown will not make a profit and will have to go out of business. It's called getting rid of competition. I don't think it's going to work because even though the price of lab grown diamonds has fallen there are more people than ever who are buying them and more companies than ever who are going into the business of selling them.

The bottom line is, a “Lab” grown Diamond “IS” certifiably “a” Diamond by GIA, which lab grown Diamonds are given a certificate of authenticity.

I love the idea ♥️ Ethical is way more beautiful than the well-marketed association with romance and rarity that mined diamonds rely on.

Just about a hundred years ago, cultured pearls were first mass-produced and commercialized in Japan by Kokichi MIkimoto and his company. Now, "pearls" we wear are almost 99.99% cultured pearls. History will repeat itself...

I just want the price to drop, to the point in which, I can have a diamond glass phone screen.

If you ask me i think lab grown diamond is far more impressive. It represents the progress we had made as a human race, to be able to recreate nature's forces in such a short time. If anything it should be more expensive than mined diamonds.

Hope this kills the dimond industry forever, dimond mining has caused more deaths than anything.

I have a lab created diamond in my ring and I promise that you can't tell the difference between it and my friend's that has a natural stone. I requested diamond because I believe that it's beautiful and my alternate choice of emerald was too expensive. I also asked my partner to look at lab created for peace of mind that the ring was as conflict free as possible. The stone cost him $650 as opposed to the "real thing" that was nearly $2000. That's just for a 1/3 carat. Imagine the cost of anything larger with the same pedigree (colour, cut, etc.). Most couples I know are opting for these alternatives, someone I know has a white sapphire setting that's just as beautiful and didn't dig deep into the money they've been saving for a house. The consumer market is changing and the industry needs to adjust to the values of the new generation or die trying. The death of the diamond industry is the only death I'd want on my hands.

I would take a lab grown diamond over a diamond from the earth. The impact on the environment and the community of mining these shiny rocks when you can purchase a better lab grown diamond makes no sense as to why you would purchase one from the deep underground. An every better alternative is a moissanite, such a beautiful lab grown stone.

"Diamonds are expensive because they are rare." You mean artificial scarcity?

Gold is an investment. As is the design and artwork of the piece.

buy low, sell high.

Lab grown diamonds as they are created in lab are less expensive and people who bought these stones when they tried to sell it they got only 25% of what they paid and for the natural diamonds they got 80-120% of the money they have invested

Lol that lady seriously thinks that diamonds are investments? Try reselling your engagement ring and see how much value it retains, I'd be surprised if you can even get 25% of what you paid for.

The host dude looks like weird al,s brother. On another note ,.diamonds an "investment"??? More like the biggest rip off.

Been hearing that diamonds are “rare” for decades now, and look steady supply still.

i never understood why people go crazy over random shiny stones but very interesting if there is more to go around! :)

We went with a Moissanite stone. Less expensive, more luminous than a mined or lab grown diamond, and 92.5% as hard.

When ur threatened with change...you start preaching philosophy lol

Mined Diamonds and manufactured diamonds can't coexist without disclosure because real stones will be forever expensive and the "fakes" will fear people into buying them. 😛

I hate nothing more than to hear that diamonds are considered an investment. A good investment should provide an expectation of profit either by paying dividends, interest or rents which a diamond doesn't.

At the end of the day, the difference is NATURAL vs UNNATURAL / MAN MADE. This factor alone will associate ALL LAB DIAMONDS AS FAKE DIAMONDS. Sure, cut, clarity, etc can be matched but it's still man made. This will never change.

I like diamonds as accent stones but not the centerpiece. Diamonds that are huge look horribly gaudy!

I like opals.

I'm sorry, but unless the symbol of my love is infused with the souls of the child slaves that mined it, I'm afraid it just lacks the magic. Also, the presence of the lab grown diamonds is useful in the research of semi conductors. So honestly I feel like all the benefits of synthetic diamonds do not outweigh the tears from the natural diamond industry. I honestly hope they get run into the ground.

What is horrifying is that synthetic diamonds aren't being scaled up even though they offer tantalizing new possibilities in everything.. Imagine much faster electronics, superconductivity that's affordable etc

"Energy" of the diamond. 🙄🤦

Moissanite is cheaper than a regular diamond and has better "fire" (sparkle). Diamond is just slightly harder than it. There is CZ (Cubic Zirconia) is a very good diamond look alike too. I'm sorry but I will save some bucks with these alternatives.

Moissanite girl here as well. I got a 2 ct sparkler that I adore

I got a lab-grown diamond for my fiance's engagement ring. She fucking loves it. Almost twice the carats for the same price.

Diamond market definitely will be impacted and it might be getting close to ART industry as the value of each art works are quite objective.

A barbaric custom which implies subliminally that women can be bought for two months of salary, a bride price. I hope that modern couples reject this wall street style of greed and trickery.

Moissanite is also disrupting the industry and is even cheaper than lab diamonds. I love that stuff.

It has a higher refractive index and is even rarer than diamond naturally

As you said , it's not a diamond but "the lab grown diamond" so no competition is feasible, it might happen if this technology had been discoverd long back ago , in time when people started diamond mining.

Real diamonds have been mined for so long, that the magic was lost a long time ago.

I’d still stick with natural diamonds
