Lab-Grown Diamonds:

The Ultimate Guide by Promise Me by Harry Georje

 

In the world of modern fine jewellery, lab-grown diamonds are making waves—and for all the right reasons. At Promise Me by Harry Georje, we believe in offering timeless beauty with a conscience. Whether you’re searching for an engagement ring or a piece that reflects your values, lab-grown diamonds are a brilliant choice.

This guide will walk you through everything you need to know about lab-grown diamonds—how they’re made, how they compare to natural diamonds, and why they’re becoming the smart, sustainable choice for Australians.

What Are Lab-Grown Diamonds?

Lab-grown diamonds are real diamonds, created in a laboratory using advanced technology that replicates the natural conditions under which diamonds form in the earth.

They share the same physical, chemical, and optical properties as mined diamonds. The only difference? Their origin.

Two Methods of Creation:

  1. HPHT (High Pressure High Temperature) – Mimics the earth’s natural diamond-growing environment.
  2. CVD (Chemical Vapour Deposition) – Uses carbon-rich gas to grow diamonds layer by layer.

Both processes result in a stunning diamond that is visually and structurally identical to a natural one.

Are Lab-Grown Diamonds Ethical and Sustainable?

Absolutely. One of the key reasons Australians are turning to lab-grown diamonds is the ethical and environmental benefits.

  • Eco-Friendly: No mining required, which significantly reduces environmental impact.
  • Lower Carbon Footprint: Especially when created in facilities using renewable energy.
  • Conflict-Free: No association with unethical labour or war zones.

At Promise Me by Harry Georje, our lab-grown diamonds are sourced exclusively from reputable, certified growers who follow strict environmental and ethical standards.

Are Lab Diamonds Certified?

Yes—just like natural diamonds, lab-grown diamonds are independently graded by top gemmological laboratories.

Look for certifications from:

  • GIA (Gemological Institute of America)
  • IGI (International Gemological Institute)
  • GCAL (Gem Certification and Assurance Lab)

These reports confirm the diamond’s 4Cs and ensure transparency in your purchase.

Are Lab-Grown Diamonds Right for Engagement Rings?

Without a doubt! More couples in Australia are choosing lab-grown diamonds for their ethical, sustainable, and aesthetically stunning appeal.

  • ✅ Custom settings
  • ✅ Classic and modern cuts
  • ✅ Oval, round, princess, cushion, and more

Trend Alert: Celebrities like Emma Watson, Meghan Markle, and Zoë Kravitz have been spotted wearing jewellery with lab-grown stones—making them a glamorous and conscious choice.

How to Care for a Lab-Grown Diamond

Caring for a lab-grown diamond is no different from a natural one:

  • Clean regularly with mild soap, warm water, and a soft brush.
  • Avoid harsh chemicals.
  • Store separately to avoid scratches.
  • Have your setting checked yearly.
