Are Lab-Grown Diamonds Real Diamonds? LovBe Experts Answer Your Most-Asked Questions

More and more, modern couples are turning to budget-friendly options when choosing an engagement ring. Lab-grown diamonds are a simple solution to staying on budget while also providing an incandescent shine that you can't get anywhere else. As one of the leading online retailers for lab-grown diamonds, LovBe creates high-quality engagement rings that are beautiful to behold. Founder and CEO of LovBe Margit Reinson is here to answer your most frequently asked questions to help you determine if a lab-grown diamond is right for you.
 

Why should a couple choose a lab-grown diamond?  

"While there are numerous reasons why a couple should choose a lab-grown diamond, one of the best reasons, in LovBe's case, is the opportunity to buy the highest quality stone for the best value. A couple could afford twice the carat weight of a mined diamond for the price of a LovBe lab-grown diamond. For example, a couples' budget would allow them to get a 2-carat LovBe lab-grown diamond, same cut, color and clarity, for the cost of a 1-carat mined diamond. Convinced yet?"

What are the top differences between a lab-grown diamond and a natural diamond? 

"The only differences between a lab-grown diamond and a mined diamond is where they are created and how long it takes them to form. Beyond these two points, lab-grown diamonds and mined diamonds are chemically and optically identical, meaning their look, color and clarity will be the same."
 

Will anyone be able to tell the difference between a lab-grown diamond vs a natural diamond?

"Simply put, no. Per the Gemological Institute of America (GIA), 'Because laboratory-grown diamonds are essentially chemically and optically the same as their natural counterparts, traditional gemological observations and old-style "diamond detectors" are not able to tell them apart. Identification at a professional gemological laboratory or using sophisticated devices developed by GIA and other organizations are the only reliable methods to separate them from natural diamonds.'"
 

What makes LovBe's lab-grown diamonds unique? Why should a couple choose a LovBe lab-grown diamond?

"Each LovBe lab-grown diamond is selected by a diamond expert, with several decades of experience. Only 2 of every 10 diamonds reviewed pass LovBe's strict quality standards and are selected to be included in LovBe's collection. 96% of LovBe lab-grown diamonds are classified as Ideal or Excellent Cut. Only the highest quality diamonds for a given color and clarity, certified by independent third-party diamond grading laboratories, are chosen --- ensuring the maximum sparkle, fire and luster of each diamond."
