As lab-grown diamonds rise in popularity, one question keeps coming up:
Are they real diamonds?
The short answer: Yes. 100% real.
But let’s go deeper.

At Aminov Jewelry Company, we offer both natural and lab-grown diamond jewelry—each certified, ethically sourced, and beautifully crafted. If you’re curious about how lab-created diamonds compare to mined ones, this guide is for you.

What Are Lab-Grown Diamonds?

Lab-grown diamonds (also called lab-created or man-made diamonds) are made using advanced technology that replicates the natural diamond formation process—high pressure and high temperature (HPHT) or chemical vapor deposition (CVD).

  • Same physical, chemical, and optical properties as natural diamonds

  • Graded by GIA or IGI using the same standards (4 Cs)

  • Formed in weeks, instead of billions of years

They’re not simulants like cubic zirconia or moissanite—they’re actual diamonds.

Lab-Grown vs Natural Diamonds: What’s the Difference?

Feature Lab-Grown Diamond Natural Diamond
Origin Created in a lab Formed deep within Earth
Appearance Identical to the eye Identical to the eye
Composition Pure carbon Pure carbon
Price More affordable Higher due to rarity
Ethical Impact Low environmental impact Depends on sourcing practices
Certification IGI, GIA, etc. IGI, GIA, etc.

From a gemological standpoint, there is no visible difference without specialized equipment.

Are Lab-Grown Diamonds a Good Investment?

While natural diamonds may hold or increase value over time due to rarity, lab-grown diamonds are ideal for buyers focused on beauty, size, and sustainability at a better price point.

Think of it like technology—you get high-quality performance at a more accessible cost.

Why Choose Lab-Grown?

  • Ethically sourced

  • Eco-conscious

  • Larger size or higher quality for the same budget

  • Perfect for custom engagement rings, fashion jewelry, or everyday luxury

At Aminov, our lab-grown diamonds are GIA- or IGI-certified and hand-selected for brilliance, clarity, and proportion.
