We all have seen the evolution of diamonds: From mined to lab-grown in today's world. From being traditionally mined to now being grown in labs, the diamond industry has seen a big shift in how diamonds are sold, bought, and perceived by customers. For a very long time, naturally mined diamonds have been a symbol of luxury and status. A woman’s diamond wedding ring would be a major topic of discussion and show off among friends and a flaunt moment for the wearer. Celebrity diamond rings have even made the news due to their size, hefty price, and rarity. But this whole process of mining and gaining natural diamonds has somewhat been always a source of controversy from illegal mining to bad labor practices to depletion of the earth’s layers has always raised concerns. Due to these long pending issues, the birth of lab diamonds happened to offer a sustainable yet luxurious choice of buying to diamond lovers all across the globe.
There have been concerns when it comes to mined diamonds because when diamonds are mined they do cause erosion to the soil and earth. Large-scale mining does cause many environmental issues and concerns. There are also ethical labor concerns where blood diamonds are concerned. There has been a Hollywood movie showing the same concern. Since these mines have been under the control of a few companies the markups and prices have been high and controlled by a few players only. They have been marketed as rare, hence creating a supply and demand gap.
In the year 1995 the first lab-grown diamond was created using the High-pressure high-temperature technique and lab diamonds were available in the market comparatively cheaper than their counterparts then as more research was done on this a new and advanced technique of CVD chemical vapor disposition method emerged and using this method more accurate and precise diamonds started getting made. The lab diamonds available today can't be separated from the naked eye, and lab testing is required to distinguish the natural one from the lab-grown one. These lab diamonds are available in solitaire carats and are also tested and graded by prestigious diamond grading centers worldwide.
There has also been a notable shift in the buying and liking of end buyers for lab-grown diamonds. Social media has played an important part in educating consumers and making them more aware of these diamonds' origin, sustainability, and ethical sourcing, hence creating a lot of awareness and acceptance in the market.
The modern buyer has now started preferring buying these stones and there is a huge market demand for them. Because these lab diamonds are up to 50% cheaper than natural ones and also they can shine with the same brilliance and are equally durable the consumer is floored with the option of savings. Many influencers and celebrities have played a pivotal role in promoting and even investing in brands that sell lab-grown diamonds to make their reach and acceptance wider.
