The same stones,
conciously created

Lab grown diamonds and gemstones are formed using state-of-the-art technology to imitate mother nature. They're created by scientists, and are handpicked and tested by gemmologists, ensuring all the quality, clarity and beauty you'd expect from a natural stone - they are chemically and optically identical.

Lab-grown diamonds and gemstones are created in weeks rather than millions of years, making them far more attainable than mined stones. This means you can often achieve a larger or higher-quality stone for your budget.

• A rare, natural stone created by our earth
• Considered higher in value because they are a finite natural resource
• Require production transparency to ensure they are conflict-free and consciously-mined
• Have a higher price because they are hard to find, and their production involves mining and transportation
• 1-3 billion years to create.

The process starts with a tiny shard of a mined diamond, a 'diamond seed', and uses state-of-the-art technology to replicate the natural conditions under which diamonds are formed underground in the earth's mantle.

By applying extreme pressure and heat, imitating the volcanic process, the lab grown diamonds are made of carbon atoms in a lattice crystal structure - exactly the same as mined diamonds. Luckily, lab grown diamonds grow much faster than mined diamonds, and rather than millions of years, it takes just a number of weeks for the carbon atoms to slowly crystalise on the surface of the diamond seed, evolving into a rough diamond. Once ready, the diamond is handpicked and tested by a gemmologist, to be cut, polished and crafted into something beautiful.
