Lab Created Gemstones & Diamonds are real!
A lab gemstone (often referred to as “synthetic”) is a gemstone that is created in a laboratory, rather than mined from the earth. Lab-created gemstones are in fact real and genuine!

Moissanites - The Best Diamond alternative
Natural Moissanite is by far the rarest jewel on earth. Naturally occurring quantities of Moissanite are so minute, they are not suitable for use in Jewellery. In fact Natural moissanite is so incredibly rare, that just about all Moissanites available today are Laboratory Grown using a complicated thermal growing process. It takes their labs two to three months to create a single gem of lab grown Moissanite, due to an extremely complex and expensive process.

What is so special about Rose-Cut Diamonds?
