What are Lab Grown Diamonds?

Laboratory diamonds are real diamonds just with a different origin - they are made in the laboratory. Advanced technology is used in their manufacture to mimic the same conditions that exist in nature for earth-grown diamonds.
Lab grown and mined diamonds are equally beautiful and durable and they are chemically and physically identical. So, the only real difference is where they come from. Laboratory diamonds are man-made and grown in a laboratory while mined diamonds are formed in the earth.

How are they made?

Usually diamonds are formed over billions of years under immense pressure and temperatures of over 1000 degrees in the earth's depth and are extracted in mines. Laboratory diamonds are grown in the same conditions that diamonds are formed naturally. This is how real stones are created in the laboratory without harming human life, the environment or your wallet.

Benefits of laboratory diamonds

Liska Lab pays special attention to ethical, social and environmentally responsible products. Laboratory diamonds are environmentally friendly and conflict-free, but also of high-quality and inexpensive. They do not pollute the environment or nature and are free from political and economic conflicts.

Lab grown diamonds are better choice in many ways:

Quality

Laboratory diamonds have the same optical, chemical and physical properties as mined diamonds. The quality of the laboratory diamonds is also graded by 4Cs criteria: Carat, Color, Clarity, Cut. Laboratory diamonds can be far superior to mined diamonds especially in terms of hardness and clarity.

Transparency and fair pricing

Lab grown diamonds offer excellent value for money and are significantly cheaper than mined diamonds of the same size and quality. Buying a laboratory diamond can save you money and you still get the same product.

In addition, there is a direct supply chain in lab grown industry, in which it can be precisely tracked who comes into contact with the jewelry in which phase of the manufacturing process. This means that a much higher level of transparency can be guaranteed.

Minimal impact on the environment 

Diamond mining has a huge impact on our environment. Most diamonds around the world are mined in countries where there are no environmental regulations. To extract diamonds from the earth, mining companies make deep mines that leave huge holes in the ground. The seabed is being cleared, riverbeds are being dug up.

Since the entire process of manufacturing laboratory diamonds is carried out in a laboratory, the environment is not so heavily polluted. Laboratory diamonds do not destroy the ecosystem and are environmentally friendly. 

Conflict-free

Naturally mined diamonds are often associated with violence and conflict. We believe a diamond should be a symbol of love, not war. You can buy a lab grown diamond with a clear conscience and you don't need to worry that it was created under unethical conditions.

No human rights violations

Most of the mined diamonds are made in factories where workers are exploited, no precautions are taken and child labor is practiced. We do not support this in any way and ensure a high level of employee satisfaction.

Lab grown diamonds are easier to trace and, unlike mined diamonds, offer more transparency about human rights and working conditions.
