Lab grown diamond - A lab grown diamond is a synthetic diamond that has the same chemical and physical properties as a natural diamond. Accordingly, it is a real diamond that has "grown" in the laboratory through an innovative process. Like a natural diamond, a lab grown diamond is made of 100% carbon and also has a hardness of 10 on Moh's scale. A positive aspect of synthetic diamonds is that they are more environmentally friendly and more ecological, as there is no need to mine them, which can consume a wide variety of resources. They are also guaranteed to be conflict-free. The four Cs also mark the most important qualities relevant to the value of a lab grown diamond. The cut should emphasize optimal proportions and give the diamond its fire. Color is the second important characteristic of diamonds. The most valuable diamonds are completely colorless. Clarity is the third quality feature for diamonds; here a high-quality gemstone should allow the light to penetrate unhindered and have no inclusions. The size (carat) and/or the weight is the fourth characteristic.
