LAB GROWN DIAMONDS

Lab grown diamonds are being used for engagement rings, wedding bands as well as other lab grown diamond jewellery. Lab grown or man made diamonds have the same chemical composition as natural diamonds so are visually identical. These diamonds are ideal for people looking to save some money and still get that diamond brilliance, fire, sparkle and luster. The only real difference between lab grown diamonds, and their natural cousins, is scarcity. Lab grown diamond jewellery has grown in popularity as a cheaper alternative to natural diamonds. If you’d like to spend less on your sparkle, and buy a lab grown diamond, contact the Fergus James team.

“Probably the most comfortable experience I've had purchasing anything! Finding the ring can be a daunting experience as you only have 1 chance to get it right. Fergus spent almost 6months trying to source the perfect ring, giving me an honest assessment of each ring.”

“Fergus was fantastic... I cannot recommend highly enough. I live in Sydney and was able to coordinate the entire design process with Fergus over the period of 6 months. He could not have been more attentive and made himself accessible at all hours of the day.”

Massive thanks to everyone at Fergus James for making the most perfect ring! Best around for quality and service!”

LAB CREATED DIAMONDS

Lab grown diamonds are not anything new. NASA produced the first lab grown diamond back in the 1960’s so they’ve been around for a good while. Lab grown diamonds are produced using two different methods which are the High Pressure High Temperature technique (HPHT) and the Chemical Vapor Deposition (CVD) approach. When the lab grown diamonds have gone through either of these processes a rough lab grown diamond is the end result. The rough lab grown diamond then goes to a diamond cutter who cuts the diamond into a diamond shape. The lab grown polished diamond then goes to the IGI diamond laboratory to be independently graded and given a lab grown diamond certificate of authenticity. Then the lab grown diamond is sold to a wholesaler or direct to a jeweler. The synthetic diamond ultimately ends up in piece of lab grown diamond jewellery.
