WHY LAB-GROWN DIAMONDS

Lab-grown diamonds are a modern way to wear something timeless. They're real diamonds in every sense, with the same sparkle, strength and beauty, created above ground rather than mined from the earth. It's the choice we believe in, and the only kind of diamond we set.

THEY'RE BRILLIANT

Chemically, physically and optically, a lab-grown diamond is a diamond. It has the same fire and hardness as a mined stone, made to be worn every day and treasured for generations.

THEY'RE THOUGHTFULL

Grown in a controlled setting, our diamonds require no mining. Every one is clearly disclosed as lab-grown, so you always know exactly what you're wearing.

THEY'RE WITHIN REACH

Lab-grown diamonds open the door to larger carats and higher clarity at a more attainable price, so you never have to choose between the ring you want and the one you can have.

LAB GROWN OR MINED: WHAT'S THE DIFFERENCE?

Both natural and lab-grown diamonds are forms of crystallised carbon. They share essentially the same physical, chemical and optical properties. Their key differences are their origin, formation process and environmental and economic considerations.
