Why Lab-Grown Diamonds
Why Lab-Grown Diamonds?
Real Diamonds. Real Brilliance. Better Value.
At Verde Luz, we use lab-grown diamonds because they combine authentic beauty, ethical sourcing, and exceptional value — so you can enjoy fine jewelry you’ll wear and love for years.
What Are Lab-Grown Diamonds?
Lab-grown diamonds are:
✅ 100% real diamonds — identical to natural diamonds in structure and sparkle
✅ Made of the same carbon crystal that makes diamonds so brilliant
✅ Evaluated and certified using the same industry standards (4C’s: Cut, Color, Clarity, Carat)
The only difference? Where they were formed — in a controlled lab instead of deep underground.
How Do They Compare to Natural Diamonds?
| Feature | Lab-Grown Diamonds | Natural Diamonds |
|---|---|---|
| Chemical Structure | Same | Same |
| Optical Brilliance | Same | Same |
| Hardness (Durability) | Same | Same |
| Sourced Ethically | ✔️ Yes | Often varies |
| Environmental Impact | Lower | Higher |
| Price for Same Quality | More affordable | More expensive |
Lab-grown diamonds have the same sparkle and strength as natural diamonds — and at a more thoughtful price point.
