Understanding Lab-Grown Diamonds
Lab-grown diamonds (LGDs) are real diamonds, sharing the same chemical, physical, and visual properties as mined diamonds. The only difference is their origin—mined from the earth vs. grown in a lab. Even trained gemologists cannot distinguish them with the naked eye.
Yes! Lab-grown diamonds are chemically, physically, and optically identical to mined diamonds. The only difference is their origin.
Using advanced technology, we replicate the natural diamond-growing process in a controlled environment, creating real diamonds without mining.
Lab-grown diamonds are produced using two methods:
- High Pressure High Temperature (HPHT)
- Chemical Vapour Deposition (CVD)
Both processes mimic the conditions under which natural diamonds form, resulting in high-quality diamonds that are indistinguishable from mined ones.
Diamonds are graded based on:
- Cut – Excellent (ideal), Very Good, Good, Fair, Poor (Our diamonds are only Excellent Cut).
- Colour – Graded from D to Z (Our diamonds are FG+).
- Clarity – F, IF, VVS, VS, SI, I (Our diamonds are VS-VVS).
- Carat – The weight of the diamond.

Lab-grown diamonds have a lower carbon footprint and minimal environmental impact compared to mined diamonds. Lab-grown Diamonds are created without harming the environment, making them a conscious choice for mindful consumers.
Absolutely! Since they’re grown in a lab, they have no connection to unethical mining practices or human rights violations. Unlike mined diamonds, Lab-grown Diamonds have a transparent supply chain, ensuring that they are free from conflict, human rights violations, and environmental harm.
Why Choose Lab-Grown Diamonds?
Lab-grown Diamond jewellery is a smart choice because it offers the brilliance and quality of natural diamonds at approximately 10% of the cost. This means you can either invest the money you save for future returns or expand your collection by purchasing multiple exquisite pieces within the same budget. It also gives you the opportunity to opt for bigger sizes and experimental designs.
While moissanite and zirconium are affordable alternatives, they are not diamonds. Lab-grown diamonds are real diamonds, sharing the same physical and chemical properties as natural diamonds, including the 4Cs (colour, clarity, cut, and carat). Lab-grown diamonds are also certified by recognized institutions such as IGI and SGL, ensuring you get the same quality assurance as with natural diamonds.
Choosing lab-grown diamond jewellery is a testament to your smart decision-making. At Nodes of Destiny, we celebrate women who are unapologetic about their choices. If you're wearing Lab-grown diamonds, you should flaunt them with pride—because it reflects your intelligence and savvy approach to luxury.
In recent years, both natural and lab-grown diamond prices have seen declines, which has affected resale values. However, our exchange and buyback policy ensures that you can exchange or sell your jewellery at any time based on prevailing market prices.
Even if Lab-grown diamonds prices fall more than natural diamonds, you are still better off as the 90% you save upfront can be invested wisely. As a result, your returns will be higher compared to natural diamonds.
