Diamonds are formed under pressure, but what if we’re looking for a breezy start in love? If you’re looking for romance, fun, and long-lasting love, then lab-grown diamond rings were made just for you.
Diamonds are, after all, a gal’s best friend. Sorry, I don’t make the rules. 💍💎
But first, what exactly are lab-grown diamonds? Lab-grown diamonds are just as real as regular diamonds; the main difference between the two is the environment in which they were created.
Whilst diamonds are natural resources, lab-grown diamonds are man-made and crafted in a controlled environment. Irrespective of their creation process, natural diamonds and lab-grown diamonds are absolutely identical in composition and quality.
Put simply, lab-grown diamonds are *not* dupes, and they shine just as brightly as natural diamonds to prove it.
Lab-grown diamonds are cost-conscious and priced between 30% to 60% less than natural diamonds. The sustainability factor is another plus since lab-grown diamonds spare our planet from the harmful effects of mining.
Lab-grown diamonds also actually help couples save money (yes, fr); they sustain your relationship, and if your love language is luxurious gift-giving, then you’re spoilt for choice. So, we’ve compiled 6 lab-grown jewellery brands to help you pick out the lab-grown diamond ring of your dreams. Is that the sound of ~wedding bells~?
