No, lab grown diamonds are neither synthetic nor artificial. They are as real as natural diamonds
and are grown in a laboratory instead of being mined from under the surface of the earth.

Absolutely not, the two are completely different. lab grown diamonds are 100% real diamonds
meaning they are entirely made up of carbon. Cubic Zirconia does not contain any carbon
and are significantly weaker in hardness as compared to lab grown diamonds that are real
diamonds.

There is no optical, thermal, physical or chemical difference between natural & lab grown
diamonds. They both are made up of carbon, however lab grown diamonds have an edge over
most natural diamonds as lab grown diamonds are 100% carbon, the purest type of diamonds –
Type IIa diamonds.

Diamonds can be grown in laboratories through two processes namely lab grown (Chemical Vapor
Deposition) and HPHT (High Temperature High Pressure)

In chemical vapor deposition or   lab grown , diamonds are created by subjecting the natural
diamond seed to high pressure & temperature inside the machine chambers along with an
infiltration of gases. The gases work up their magic when subjected to high pressure &
temperature to disintegrate the carbon atop the seed to form purest form of a diamond – a
Type IIa diamond. There are currently only a handful of players in the world as lab grown is a
capital-intensive and complex technology that is also very hard to replicate.

 lab grown diamonds are created using an advanced technology in laboratories whereas natural
diamonds are mined from under the surface of the earth. lab grown diamonds do not incur the
expense of mining and hence are significantly lesser in price.

In comparison to natural diamonds, lab grown diamonds do not cause environmental damage.
They are devoid of any ethical, social or environmental issues.

No, lab grown diamonds are equivalent to natural diamonds in terms of its color, optics, physical &
thermal compositions. So they do not change color over time and are as resilient as natural
diamonds.

Depending on the size of the diamond, the growing process can take anywhere between 3-12
weeks but usually takes 3-4 weeks.

No. The naked eye cannot tell the difference between natural diamonds and lab grown diamonds.
In fact, more often than not, lab grown diamonds have a better luster as compared to its natural
counterparts. Specifically designed hi-tech machines can tell the difference between lab grown and
natural diamonds
