Yes, lab-grown diamonds, like mined diamonds, are real diamonds. They have the same carbon composition as naturally occurring diamonds, which gives them the same chemical and physical properties.

There are a few differences between the two types of diamonds available in the market:

1.  Mined diamonds take billions of years to form, while lab-grown diamonds can be manufactured in a few weeks or months, depending on the manufacturing method used.
2.  We can control the purity levels of manufactured diamonds but not that of mined diamonds.
3.  Mined diamonds have minor nitrogen content, while lab-grown diamonds are nitrogen-free.
4.  Mined diamonds take billions of years to form; hence, they are rarer than lab-grown diamonds.
5.  Manufacturing diamonds is more environmentally friendly than mining them.

It takes a few weeks or months, depending on the manufacturing method used, such as the HPHT and CVD manufacturing methods. Limerence Diamonds primarily utilizes the CVD method for diamond manufacturing, however HPHT manufacturing method is also used. To understand more about the CVD and HPHT manufacturing method, head on over to our Diamond Education page.
