Natural diamonds and laboratory-grown diamonds may look similar at first glance, but their origins are very different.
Natural diamonds are formed deep within the earth over billions of years.
Synthetic diamonds are created in controlled environments using advanced technology.
GIA screens every diamond it grades to determine:
- Whether it is natural or laboratory-grown
- Whether it has been treated or enhanced
- Whether it is a simulant designed to imitate diamond
This process protects the client from uncertainty and misrepresentation.
At Carats, we believe clarity builds confidence.
Understanding what you are buying and how it was formed, allows you to make a decision that aligns with your values, not just appearances.
