They actually have tons of reputable jewelers selling real diamonds that are <strong>certified and guaranteed<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>\nThat is&#8230; <strong>If you know what to look for<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>\nWith lab-grown diamonds taking over the market, I thought it would be <strong>a nice opportunity<\/strong> to discuss purchasing these more <strong>inexpensive alternative diamonds<\/strong>, so you know <strong>what to buy<\/strong>, and what to <strong>pass-by<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>\nLet&#8217;s get one thing straight, <strong>lab-grown diamonds are REAL diamonds<\/strong>. They are <strong>identical to natural diamonds<\/strong> (mined from the Earth) in every way. Lab-grown diamonds are just <strong>grown in a laboratory<\/strong> (usually using real diamond crystals), versus nature, which takes billions of years to create. The lab is much <strong>faster<\/strong>, and much more <strong>cheaper <\/strong>that anything Mother Nature can churn out.<\/p>\n<p>\nLab-grown diamonds are <strong>graded, rated, and certified<\/strong> just like any natural diamonds. They are virtually impossible to tell the difference between them. It&#8217;s like looking at 2 babies; 1 natural birth, and the other a test-tube baby. Trying to tell the difference between them is not going to happen. So these lab diamonds have the exact same flaws, imperfections, color hues, and blemishes as natural diamonds. <strong>The only difference between them is the price<\/strong>. They&#8217;re usually <strong>50-60% less<\/strong>, which is why they are so popular right now.<\/p>\n<p>\nWhen purchasing lab-grown diamonds, it&#8217;s important to make sure that the <strong>title and description<\/strong> says &#8220;<strong>Lab-Grown Diamond<\/strong>&#8221; or &#8220;<strong>Lab-Created Diamond<\/strong>&#8220;. This is <strong>crucial<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p><h2>Just like these Lab-Grown Diamonds below:<\/h2>\n<p>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.jewelry-secrets.com\/Blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/Buying-Lab-Grown-Diamonds-On-Amazon.png\" alt=\"BUYING LAB-GROWN DIAMONDS ON AMAZON\" title=\"BUYING LAB-GROWN DIAMONDS ON AMAZON\" width=\"640\" height=\"4744\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-33764\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.jewelry-secrets.com\/Blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/Buying-Lab-Grown-Diamonds-On-Amazon.png 640w, https:\/\/www.jewelry-secrets.com\/Blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/Buying-Lab-Grown-Diamonds-On-Amazon-138x1024.png 138w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>\nIt&#8217;s also wise to buy lab-grown diamonds that are <strong>certified<\/strong>. They don&#8217;t have to be certified, but if I were buying diamonds, I would want them with <strong>laminated official paperwork<\/strong> from a diamond grading company such as; <strong>GIA, IGI, EGL<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>\nNow, when searching for <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/3srDx62\">lab-grown diamonds<\/a>, there are a couple of things to look out for. <strong>Key words that may be red flags<\/strong> on deceiving items that may not be lab-grown, or real.<\/p>\n<p><h2>Look for these words:<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Certified <\/strong>&#8211; that&#8217;s good!<\/li>\n<li><strong>14k Gold<\/strong> &#8211; Highly recommended<\/li>\n<li><strong>Sterling Silver<\/strong> or <strong>.925<\/strong> &#8211; Would not buy!!!

Don&#8217;t buy!<\/li>\n<li><strong>Synthetic Diamond<\/strong> &#8211; Not a real diamond. Synthetic is created to appear like the real thing, but it&#8217;s not. Don&#8217;t buy!<\/li>\n<li>Lastly&#8230; The <strong>Price<\/strong>! If the price is really cheap cheap cheap, don&#8217;t buy it.
