LAB-GROWN DIAMONDS
In recent years there has been a huge increase in the number of companies producing laboratory-grown diamonds, sometimes known as man-made diamonds.
Some people choose Lab-grown diamonds because they see them as ethical or more environmentally friendly than mined diamonds, or because you get a bigger stone for your budget.
Man-made diamonds should not be confused with diamond simulants, such as Cubic Zirconia and Moissanite.
The chemical and physical properties of lab-grown diamonds are identical to those of natural diamonds. Many come with a certificate stating their origin.
At Aurum, we use both natural, mined diamonds and laboratory grown diamonds.
If your engagement ring does not have perfectly flat sides, it probably won't fit with a straight wedding ring.
If you want to know that what you are looking at is a real diamond, you need to be aware of the other materials that it could be.
If you want to ensure that the jewellery you buy is sustainable and environmentally responsible, you need to ask questions about the sources of the materials.
