Understanding Lab Grown Diamond Rings — U.S. Buyer’s Guide
What Makes Lab Grown Diamonds Ideal for Rings?
Rings—especially engagement rings and everyday statement styles—require diamonds that deliver strong brilliance, durability, and clarity. Lab grown diamonds offer the same optical and structural properties as mined diamonds, making them an excellent choice for pieces meant to be worn daily.
Variation uses two advanced growth methods:
CVD (Chemical Vapor Deposition)
HPHT (High Pressure High Temperature)
Both methods create diamonds with identical hardness, refractive index, and visual beauty to mined stones—ensuring long-lasting sparkle and structural strength.
U.S. customers choosing Variation enjoy:
Exceptional brilliance and fire
Precise craftsmanship for secure, comfortable wear
IGI-certified diamond assurance
Greater size and quality within budget

Frequently Asked Questions
Are lab grown diamond rings real diamond rings? +
Yes. Lab grown diamond rings feature 100% real diamonds with the same brilliance,
fire, and durability as mined diamonds. Only the origin is different — the diamond
is grown in a modern laboratory instead of being extracted from the earth.
Do lab grown diamond rings last as long as mined diamond rings? +
Absolutely. Lab grown diamonds score a 10 on the Mohs hardness scale and are just
as durable as natural diamonds, making them ideal for daily-wear rings such as
engagement rings and wedding bands.
Can you tell the difference between lab grown and mined diamond rings? +
No. To the naked eye, both look identical. Even trained gemologists need special
instruments and laser inscriptions to differentiate them. In terms of beauty and
sparkle, both are the same.
Are lab grown diamond engagement rings a good choice? +
Yes. Lab grown diamonds offer exceptional value, allowing you to choose a larger or
higher-quality stone within the same budget. They are IGI-certified, durable for
daily wear, and come in every popular shape and ring style.
Are lab grown diamond rings certified? +
Yes. All high-quality lab grown diamond rings are accompanied by IGI or GIA grading
reports that specify cut, colour, clarity, carat weight, and identified growth method.
Do lab grown diamond rings look different from natural diamond rings? +
No. Lab grown diamond rings exhibit the same sparkle, brilliance, and clarity as
mined diamond rings. Both are pure carbon crystals with identical physical and
optical properties.
Are lab grown diamond rings more affordable? +
Yes. Lab grown diamonds typically cost significantly less than mined diamonds of
the same size and quality. This allows you to choose a bigger centre stone or a
finer design without increasing your budget.
Can lab grown diamonds be used in any ring setting? +
Yes. Lab grown diamonds can be set in all popular ring designs — solitaire,
halo, three-stone, eternity bands, and more — using 18K gold or platinum.
Do lab grown diamond rings hold value? +
Like most jewellery, value depends on market demand and quality. Buyers choose
lab grown rings primarily for beauty, larger sizes, transparency, and excellent
upfront value rather than long-term resale.
Are lab grown diamond rings ethical and environmentally conscious? +
Yes. Lab grown diamonds avoid traditional mining and generally have a smaller

and sustainable choice for engagement rings and fine jewellery.
