AMAZING FACTS ABOUT
THEY ARE AUTHENTIC AS THEIR CHEMICAL COMPOSITION IS SIMILAR TO THE MINED DIAMONDS THAT ARE FOUND IN PLANET’S CRUST. THEIR PHYSICAL AND VISUAL CHARACTERISTICS ARE SAME AS WELL.
LAB DIAMONDS HAVE GAINED POPULARITY FOR SEVERAL REASONS. THE MAJOR ONE BEING A SIGNIFICANT DECLINE IN PRODUCTION TIME. HERE’S THE PROCESS BIFURCATED INTO THREE STEPS.
Lab experts pick the best seeds made of pure carbon and place 15-30 pieces of them on a specifically designed metal disk. It is capable of withstanding high temperature and pressure.
The disk is placed in a chamber made to grow seeds into diamonds. It begins the process by creating a plasma ball of superheated gases. The temperatures reach up to 900 – 1200 °C.
As time passes, the seeds grow layer by layer under a controlled environment and take around 21-28 days to formulate into a diamond. The cube is then removed, cut, and polished for use.
THERE IS LITERALLY NO DIFFERENCE THAT CAN BE SPOTTED BETWEEN A LAB-MADE DIAMOND AND A MINED DIAMOND, BE IT THE STRUCTURE, HARDNESS, DENSITY, OR COMPOSITION.
