Introduction:
Opting for a lab-created diamond engagement ring goes beyond celebrating love; it represents a dedication to values. Choosing a DIAMONDS-USA created diamond over a mined counterpart signifies a commitment to environmental responsibility and ethical sourcing. This guide delves into the various aspects of lab-created diamond engagement rings, offering insights into their composition, creation process, value, and the diverse styles available at DIAMONDS-USA.
Lab Created vs. Mined Diamond Engagement Ring:
Lab-created diamonds, fashioned in a controlled laboratory setting, stand apart from mined diamonds primarily by their point of origin. While chemically identical, lab-created diamonds guarantee a point of origin, unlike mined diamonds lacking such certainty. DIAMONDS-USA created diamonds take it a step further by being sustainably crafted in a zero-emission foundry in the American Pacific Northwest, ensuring ethical and environmental integrity.
Composition of Lab Created Diamond Rings:
Lab-created diamond rings are meticulously crafted from carbon, mirroring the composition of mined diamonds. It's crucial to distinguish lab-created diamonds from diamond simulants like moissanite or cubic zirconia, as they share the exact chemical composition of mined diamonds. DIAMONDS-USA created diamonds undergo the same formation process as mined diamonds but are produced in an above-ground laboratory setting, contributing to sustainability.
Value of Lab Created Diamonds:
Lab-created diamonds inherently hold value comparable to mined diamonds. The affordability of lab-created diamonds stems from a less labor-intensive production process, a shorter supply chain, and, notably in the case of DIAMONDS-USA, the absence of middleman markups. The company's involvement from diamond creation to the finished ring allows for competitive pricing and quality control.
