Each laboratory-grown gemstone is conflict-free and reduces:
Every laboratory-grown and created gemstone is carefully selected for its beauty and optical qualities, determined by its brilliance, colour, clarity, hardness, durability and pricing. The gemological composition and chemical structure of the stones we use can be identical (known as synthesised) or different (known as simulated) to its natural mined counterparts. From the rough stone, it is then cut, faceted, polished and set painstakingly by hand using traditional artisanal techniques.
Laboratory-grown gemstones are stones grown and created in a science laboratory, man-made, rather than mined from the ground and from nature. They exist in two genres, synthesised gemstones and simulated gemstones.

A laboratory-grown SYNTHESISED gemstone shares identical optical and gemological qualities to natural mined gemstones. They have the same chemical composition, structure and hardness, colours and brilliance to their natural mined counterparts. Synthesised gemstones can also have inclusions or perfect clarity. Free from inclusions, they have perfect colour, clarity and brilliance.
A laboratory-grown SIMULATED gemstone shares similar optical qualities, colours and brilliance but have different gemological qualities to natural mined gemstones. They have different chemical composition and structure, hardness and durability to their natural mined counterparts. Simulated gemstones usually have perfect clarity and colour saturations, some varieties can also have improved hardness, durability and stability. A simulated gemstone is always chosen for its balance in optical qualities, beauty, durability and pricing.
