To the naked eye, you can’t. Lab grown and mined diamonds look identical and share the same brilliance and sparkle.
 However, professional gemologists use advanced equipment to detect microscopic growth patterns or trace elements that can indicate lab or earth origin. Both types are certified, graded, and equally durable. The main difference? Lab grown diamonds offer better value, sustainability, and peace of mind.

Yes, they do. Lab grown diamonds pass standard diamond testers because they are chemically and physically identical to natural diamonds. They are 100% real diamonds, just created in a lab instead of extracted from the earth.

Yes. Lab grown diamonds are equally as hard as natural diamonds. Both score a 10 on the Mohs hardness scale, making them the hardest known material on Earth. This means lab grown diamonds are just as durable and resistant to scratching, perfect for everyday wear—especially in engagement rings and fine jewelry.

Absolutely. Lab grown diamonds are real diamonds. They have the same chemical composition (pure carbon), crystal structure, brilliance, and hardness as mined diamonds. The only difference is their origin—lab grown diamonds are created in high-tech labs under controlled conditions, offering a more ethical and sustainable alternative to earth-mined diamonds.

To the naked eye, there's no difference. Even professional gemologists need advanced equipment to detect subtle growth markers. That means you get all the brilliance and prestige of a mined diamond—at a more accessible price.
