Are lab-grown diamonds certified?

Yes, lab-grown diamonds are certified by renowned gemological institutions such as GIA or IGI, just like mined diamonds.

At Yanantin, we send all our diamonds above 0.50ct to IGI to be graded, with the option to request a different certificate if needed.

How do lab-grown diamonds compare to mined diamonds in terms of appearance?

Lab-grown diamonds are chemically and physically identical to mined diamonds. The only difference is their origin. Both have the same brilliance and hardness. To the naked eye, it is impossible to tell the difference, only a gemologist with specialized equipment can distinguish one from the other.

What are the benefits of choosing lab-grown diamonds over mined diamonds?

Choosing a lab-grown diamond means making an ethical, sustainable, and affordable choice. They are conflict-free, environmentally friendly, and can offer better value for money. Additionally, lab-grown diamonds are chemically identical to mined diamonds, meaning you don’t have to compromise on beauty or quality.

What makes lab-grown diamonds more sustainable than mined diamonds?

Our lab-grown diamonds are produced using 100% renewable energy sources, without the environmental degradation caused by traditional mining, which often leads to deforestation, water contamination, and destruction of ecosystems. They also don’t contribute to carbon emissions associated with mining operations.

Are lab-grown diamonds less durable than mined diamonds?

No, lab-grown diamonds are just as durable as mined diamonds. Both have a 10/10 hardness rating on the Mohs scale, meaning they are the hardest naturally occurring material on Earth. Lab-grown diamonds are built to last for generations.
