Lab-Created Diamonds
Lab-created diamonds are gemstones that are produced in controlled environments using advanced technology. They have the same physical, chemical, and optical properties as natural diamonds, making them virtually indistinguishable to the naked eye. These diamonds are made from carbon atoms that are arranged in a crystal structure, just like their natural counterparts.
The process of creating lab diamonds typically involves two methods: High Pressure High Temperature (HPHT) and Chemical Vapor Deposition (CVD). Both methods replicate the natural conditions under which diamonds form in the Earth. Lab-created diamonds are often more affordable and environmentally friendly compared to mined diamonds, appealing to many consumers.
