When it comes to engagement rings and fine jewelry, diamonds are the ultimate symbol of love, luxury, and commitment. But today, many buyers are choosing lab grown diamond rings over traditional mined diamonds—and for good reason!
At Obsessions Jewellery, we believe in offering ethical, beautiful, and high-quality diamonds that align with modern values. If you’re debating between lab grown diamond rings and natural diamonds, this guide will help you understand why lab grown diamonds are the smarter choice.
1. What Are Lab Grown Diamond Rings?
Lab grown diamonds are real diamonds, created using advanced technology that replicates the natural diamond-growing process. They have the same physical, chemical, and optical properties as mined diamonds, making them indistinguishable without specialized equipment.
How Are They Made?
There are two main processes:
✔️ High-Pressure High-Temperature (HPHT) – Mimics Earth's natural diamond formation
✔️ Chemical Vapor Deposition (CVD) – Creates diamonds layer by layer in a controlled environment
The result? A stunning, 100% real diamond—just like one from the earth!
2. Lab Grown Diamonds vs. Natural Diamonds: What’s the Difference?
💎 Obsessions Jewellery Tip: If you want a high-quality diamond at a better price, lab grown diamond rings are the way to go!
3. The Top Benefits of Choosing Lab Grown Diamond Rings
✔️ More Affordable Without Compromising Quality
One of the biggest advantages of lab grown diamond rings is their affordability. Since they don’t require mining, they are 30-50% less expensive than natural diamonds of the same quality.
🔹 Example: A 1.5-carat lab grown diamond can cost the same as a 1.0-carat natural diamond—so you get a bigger, more brilliant stone for your budget!
✔️ Ethically Sourced & Conflict-Free
Many natural diamonds are mined under unethical conditions, sometimes linked to conflict zones and human rights violations.
Lab grown diamond rings eliminate these concerns because they are created in a controlled, ethical environment. When you choose lab grown diamonds, you’re making a socially responsible decision.
💎 Obsessions Jewellery Tip: If you want a guilt-free diamond that sparkles with a clear conscience, go for lab grown diamonds!
✔️ Environmentally Friendly & Sustainable
Mining natural diamonds requires tons of earth to be displaced, contributing to deforestation, water pollution, and carbon emissions. In contrast, lab grown diamonds:
✔️ Require less energy and water
✔️ Do not cause ecological destruction
✔️ Have a significantly lower carbon footprint
🔹 Example: Producing a natural diamond emits over 500 kg of CO₂ per carat, while a lab grown diamond emits less than 60 kg!
💎 Obsessions Jewellery Tip: If sustainability matters to you, lab grown diamond rings are the clear winner!
✔️ Identical Beauty & Durability
A common misconception is that lab grown diamonds are “fake” or “synthetic.” The truth? They are REAL diamonds!
💎 Same Brilliance – Lab grown diamonds shine just as brightly as mined ones.
💎 Same Hardness – Both are rated 10 on the Mohs scale, meaning they are
equally scratch-resistant.
💎 Same Clarity & Color – Lab grown diamonds have the same clarity grading
system as natural diamonds.
🔹 Example: The obsession-worthy lab grown diamond rings at Obsessions Jewellery feature perfectly cut stones with stunning clarity—just like the best natural diamonds.
