Diamonds are a girl’s best friend, but let us introduce a modern and more environmentally friendly alternative: lab-created diamonds. At Etika Jewels®, we are committed to enhance the buying experience of our customers, and extend the same support to those who are interested in learning more about beautiful man made Lab-Grown Diamond Jewellery.
WHAT IS A LAB-GROWN DIAMOND?
Lab-Grown Diamonds aren’t new, but recent progression of technology has facilitated their appearance in the jewelry industry. Lab-grown diamonds aren’t to be confused with cubic zirconia or moissanite; they are every bit as real as mined traditional diamonds.
Engineered or cultured diamonds have the exact same chemical composition and physical properties of a natural diamond, which makes them practically indistinguishable from mined diamonds of equivalent quality. Instead of forming over billions of years in the earth’s mantle, our diamonds are sustainably grown above ground in labs, with the help of latest technology that replicates the natural diamond growing process. As diamond specialists, we only offer the finest lab created colorless and fancy colored diamonds for all our gorgeous pieces.
WHY CHOOSE LAB GROWN DIAMONDS?
COMPETITIVELY
PRICED
Lab created diamonds are less expensive than natural diamonds of comparable size and quality, which means that you can purchase a much larger and better-quality lab grown diamond for the same budget.
SPARKLING
BEAUTY
Having similar chemical and visible profile, lab created diamonds share the brilliance of their mined counterparts. You won’t see the difference!
CONFLICT &
CHILD-LABOR FREE
Lab grown diamonds are a far more ethical and responsible choice.
HOW ARE LAB-GROWN DIAMONDS MADE?
At Etika Jewels®, we only offer the superior type IIa Diamonds; the purest form of diamond known to man. Type IIa diamonds are free from nitrogen or boron impurities, making them the most chemically pure of all diamonds. Lab-grown type lla diamonds are becoming a popular choice with buyers because of their sheer brilliance and sense of perfection that lasts a lifetime.
HOW ARE ETIKA JEWELS®
DIAMONDS GRADED?
Just like traditional diamonds, lab-created diamonds are graded by assessing the four C’s of diamond quality: Cut, Color, Carat, Clarity. Our lab created diamonds come in classic cuts, such as round, emerald, pear, cushion, princess, heart, oval, and marquis. All our lab created diamonds are graded with a “very good” or “ideal” cut grade for maximum brilliance, and are colorless (D-E-F) or near-colorless (G-H). Etika Diamonds are always VVS1-VS2 in clarity, giving you a stone that you can be proud of on every level!
As a measure of our quality, all diamonds 0.50 carat and above come independently certificated by the International Gemological Institute (IGI). We understand that a diamond is a big investment, so we want you to rest easy knowing that your money is being well-spent — not only because of the joy it will bring, but because of the guarantee that it will last for a lifetime.
