Laboratory Grown Diamond Rings

Diamonds are forever, and that is why a diamond is what makes the difference in a perfect engagement ring. The diamond is the only symbol that can transmit that feeling of eternal, unwearable and pure love. That is why today we talk about the importance of knowing how to choose the best diamonds for engagement rings and what the keys are to look for in order to be well-informed when buying an engagement ring.

What are diamonds and brilliants?

When we talk about diamonds, we are referring to the natural gemstone, which has a carbon crystalline structure and is the material with the highest hardness and thermal conductivity of all known materials. We usually refer to diamonds when we talk about rough, uncut stones. The most common thing is that they are a slightly yellowish colour, with the completely colourless ones being the rarest and most appreciated. Very rarely, small amounts of other elements present in the crystallization give them different colours such as bluish, green, and pink, these stones being authentic rarities with a very high price. The adamantine shine or surface shine of the diamond has little influence compared to the shine obtained when cutting them, taking advantage of one of its unique characteristics: its high refractive index. The best carvings will cause all the light that enters the stone to travel back, giving this spectacular shine that we appreciate so much.

Attention: There are currently artificial diamonds or synthetic diamonds created industrially in laboratories, which can only be distinguished from natural ones with specialized analysis systems. Of course, they have neither the symbolic value nor the authenticity of natural diamonds. They are usually sold for half the price of natural diamonds, although some sell them at a higher price. Always be wary of prices below market value. Shop here

Once the diamonds are extracted from the mine, they end up in diamond-cutting workshops. There, the characteristics of the diamonds, their internal impurities, their shape and their crystalline orientation are evaluated, and it is decided what shape and size they will be cut. This process is critical since the sizes will be determined, and the maximum benefit of the workshop will always be considered. This means that to save weight from something as expensive as a diamond, they will not always be cut perfectly, falsifying the best measurements and proportions. This means that these poorly cut stones do not have as high a price as those that have been cut perfectly. Naturally, they are not at maximum brightness either. Diamonds with a “fake” cut are the most abundant on the market, and it is most common to find diamonds with little or very little brilliance in relation to the ideal cut. This commercial “cunning” of the workshops is something that professionals know perfectly well; therefore, when we buy cut diamonds, we know very well what we are buying and at what price. We have been observing that later, when these diamonds come on the market, customers cannot determine the cut parameters and low-quality diamonds are sold for high prices. Shop Moissanite…
