What is a Lab Grown Diamond?
Lab grown diamonds, also known as cultivated or man made diamonds, are created by replicating the natural formation of diamonds formed beneath the Earth’s crust, offering a sustainable, affordable, and mining free alternative while replicating the chemical and physical properties of natural diamonds.
How Are Lab Grown Diamonds Rings Made?
Lab grown diamond rings are formed by using diamond seeds, tiny diamond crystals that provide the foundation from which the diamond grows within its controlled laboratory setting. Once the diamonds are fully formed, they are cut and polished by skilled gemologists to achieve the desired shape and brilliance. These polished diamonds are then set into rings made from precious metals like gold and platinum by our jewelers. The meticulous work of Catbird jewelers exceeds all industry standards to ensure that we can stand behind every lab grown stone.
Are Lab Grown Diamonds Real Diamonds?
Yes, lab-grown diamonds are real diamonds! They possess the same physical, chemical, and optical properties as natural diamonds, including the identical carbon atom crystal lattice structure. Created in a controlled laboratory environment using advanced technological processes, lab grown diamonds are indistinguishable from mined diamonds. In Catbird’s instant heirlooms, you’ll be wearing lab grown diamond engagement rings that are certified by reputable gemological institutions.
Quality and Certification
Lab grown diamonds are graded by institutions, such as the Gemological Institute of America (GIA) and the International Gemological Institute (IGI), on the same standards of the 4 C’s: cut, color, clarity, and carat. These certifications ensure that lab grown diamonds meet the same quality standards as natural diamonds, providing consumers with confidence in their purchase.
