If you’ve done any amount of ring shopping online, you’ve come across the term “lab-grown diamonds” but what does that even mean? Lab-grown diamonds are created in laboratories, replicating the natural processes that form real diamonds. That’s why lab-grown diamonds are chemically identical to mined diamonds, they’re just way more safe and economical to create than they are to dig randomly out of the earth.
Due to the controlled conditions in the lab, you’ll probably notice that lab-grown diamonds also have a better reputation for sparkle and clarity. Because La Joya Diamonds saves so much by only using lab-grown diamonds in their jewelry, they’re able to pass those savings on to you. So yeah, go ahead and fall in love with any of the rings in this post-they might even fit within your budget.
We’re definitely seeing center stones getting bigger and bigger. And why not? With lab-grown diamonds the rock of your dreams will cost about ⅕ of what it would have if it was mined. So yeah, you could save that money for your honeymoon, but that comes and goes. Remember, diamonds are forever…
Previously, couples might only afford an engagement ring and a simple coordinating band, but lab-grown diamonds have greatly expanded the possibilities. That’s why we’re not just seeing more blinged-out wedding bands like multi-carat eternity bands, we’re seeing stacks of them! And it’s a lewk…a good lewk!
