“ARE LABORATORY GROWN DIAMONDS IDENTICAL TO NATURAL DIAMONDS? HOW CAN YOU TELL THEM APART?”
No—laboratory grown diamonds are not identical to natural diamonds. Their origin is the primary difference. Laboratory grown diamonds are mass produced in factories, located primarily in China, India and Singapore in industrial reactors. The rapid, artificial production process which occurs in just 2 weeks creates tell-tale marks within the stones, making them easily detectable with the right equipment.
