Lab Grown Diamonds You Can Trust in the Gulport, FL Area



Sourcing Lab Grown Diamonds

There's a reason engineered diamonds are called "lab grown," and it's only partly due to marketing. Lab diamonds are started from tiny diamond seeds - actual slivers of diamond that contain the chemical structure laboratories are trying to replicate. The same way that cultured pearls are formed in a controlled environment and made by inoculating mollusks with tissue grafts, diamonds are inoculated inside a highly pressurized and heated chamber. Unlike pearls, which come from and are formed by living organisms, diamonds are not subject to the same genetic variation. Although lab diamonds are not without flaws, the result of years of scientific research is a quality product with replicable results.

A More Sustainable Future

Much of the allure of lab grown diamonds stems from their lower environmental impact than traditional diamond mining. Diamond mining has several adverse impacts; because diamonds were formed deep underground billions of years ago, mines must go deep into the earth, displacing thousand of tons of dirt and releasing carbon into the air. Diamond mining also has a history of human exploitation, as mining is difficult and dangerous labor that the miners are not well compensated for. Purchasing lab diamonds offsets the amount of energy and water wasted and provides a more ethical path forward for diamond consumption.

Lab Created Engagement Rings

Lab grown diamond engagement rings are surging in popularity as a beautiful, affordable, and more sustainable approach to mined diamonds. When you choose to purchase a created diamond for your partner, you have just as many options for ring settings and diamonds but all at a better price. Diamond engagement rings are still a precious tradition that says "yes, forever," but with created diamonds there's no need to sacrifice quality for the sake of a budget. Whether it's a large, flawless solitaire or an intricate double halo, you can give your partner the engagement ring of their dreams without any sacrifice.

Have Yourself a Sparkly Day

Glittering, sparkling diamond earrings and elegant pendants made with created diamonds are a stunning addition to any jewelry collection. Lab grown diamonds can take any form, shape, or size (the largest on record is currently 155 carats!), and can be honed and polished into everything from a marquise to a teardrop. Available in a rainbow of colors, your created diamond jewelry will practically beg to be worn. Whether it's diamond stud earrings to lunch with a friend or a sweet little pendant to your routine appointments, make wearing your fine jewelry an everyday occurrence, and every day will become a special, sparkly occasion.
