Our lab-grown Diamonds are formed using the CVD and HPHT methods - two processes that use cutting-edge technology to create Diamonds that are chemically and physically identical to the natural stones. These methods subject Diamond seeds to high temperatures and pressures that mimic mine conditions, combining them with rich gases until the seed grows layer by layer to form a perfect Diamond.  Just like natural Diamonds, these lab-grown stones score a perfect 10 on the Mohs scale of hardness, making them extremely durable and perfect for everyday wear. With no mining required and the ability to have a completely transparent supply chain, lab-grown stones are growing in popularity as a more affordable, (yet completely identical) alternative to natural stones -  we are so pleased to respond to this increasing interest with the introduction of our Chloe collection. For those who love the character, history and authenticity of natural stones, you can explore our collections here and read about our sustainably sourced stones here.
