Lab Grown Diamond

Same Diamond.
Grown with Science.

Lab grown diamonds are chemically, physically and optically identical to natural diamonds — the only difference is their origin. Created in controlled laboratory environments, they offer the same breathtaking brilliance at a fraction of the cost.

100% real diamond — identical chemical composition
IGI or GIA certified, graded to the same 4C standards
Lower environmental impact than traditional mining
Up to 70% more affordable than equivalent natural stones
Often higher clarity and colour grades for the same budget

Understanding The 4Cs

C
Cut

The most important of the 4Cs. A diamond's cut determines how brilliantly it reflects light. We source only Excellent and Ideal cut stones for maximum fire and sparkle.

C
Colour

Diamonds are graded D (colourless) to Z (light yellow). We recommend D–H for the purest near-colourless brilliance, with D–F being the most prized and rare.

C
Clarity

Clarity refers to internal inclusions and surface blemishes. We recommend VS1–SI1 for the perfect balance of purity and value — clean to the naked eye with exceptional beauty.

C
Carat

Carat is the unit of weight for diamonds. One carat equals 0.2 grams. Our collection spans a wide range of carat weights, with bespoke stones sourced to any specification.

Earth-Born Diamond Jewellery

Each piece is set with a GIA or IGI certified natural diamond — conflict-free, ethically sourced and hand selected by our experts for exceptional cut, colour and clarity.

Lab Grown Diamonds

The Same Diamond. A Different Origin.

How They're Made

Lab grown diamonds are created using HPHT (High Pressure High Temperature) or CVD (Chemical Vapour Deposition) processes — replicating the exact conditions found deep in the Earth's mantle.

Identical to Natural

Even gemologists cannot distinguish a lab grown diamond from a natural one with the naked eye. Both are pure carbon crystal — only specialist equipment can tell them apart.

Certified & Graded

Every lab grown diamond we use comes with IGI or GIA certification — graded on the same 4C standards (cut, colour, clarity, carat) as natural stones, with full documentation.

Lab Grown Diamond Jewellery

The same brilliance. The same certification. A more accessible price point. Our lab grown diamond collection offers exceptional stones, ethically grown and set by hand in our Hatton Garden atelier.
