What is a lab-grown diamond?
Laboratory-grown diamonds are real diamonds! Scientists start with a diamond “seed” and grow a real diamond in a highly controlled environment. Lab-grown diamonds look and feel just like real diamonds – because they are real diamonds! The lab-growing process is faster and cleaner than mining diamonds from the earth, making them eco-friendly, conflict-free, and less expensive. You can get a much larger lab-grown diamond, often even better quality, for the same price as you’d pay for a mined diamond. And no one call tell the difference by looking – not your friends, not even your jeweler!
If you’ve ever wanted a bigger diamond in your ring, a more affordable engagement ring, a pair of diamond stud earrings, or a better quality diamond than you have now – consider saving money with a lab-grown diamond. Compare lab-grown and mined diamonds with your own eyes at Leo’s – we have loose and jewelry-mounted diamonds of all shapes and sizes!
Not all lab-grown diamonds are equal!
Like mined diamonds, a gray tint or less-than-perfect cut can make one diamond look worse than another of the same carat, color, and clarity grade. We hand-select our lab-grown diamonds to be the whitest and most brilliant. You may find lab-grown diamonds for less, but they won’t look as good as ours!
