A fool and his money....
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 46828567


I'm geologist and gem collector so I knew what I was doing

When De Beers shocked the industry with its U-turn in May, a 1 carat synthetic diamond cost about $4,200 while an equivalent mined gem sold for $6,000. But since September, De Beers has been selling gem-quality man-made stones for just $800 a carat.

23 carat * 800 dollars =18400 dollars :) shit ton of money even for lab created

Re: Bought two lab created diamonds one 12 carat another 11 carat.Pics inside
The DeBeers lab created diamonds are reported to be identical to mined cut diamonds EXCEPT that DeBeers is putting it's symbol on a hidden part of the stone so that jewelers and appraisers will realize that it is lab created.

Personally since the DeBeers GROWN stones have all the same properties as real diamonds, including brilliance color etc. I would never again buy a REAL stone. Obviously DeBeers believes the REAL stone business is on it's last legs now that gemstone quality stones can be MANUFACTURERED so they are going into the gemstone "manufacturing" business since their original business is about to disappear.

fwiw other diamond "manufacturers" are not all marking their stones as "manufactured" unlike DeBeers ... so even if you THINK you are buying a REAL mined diamond the reality is that you MAY be buying a "manufactured" one since jewelers and appraisers can not tell the difference.

(((Debeers))) controls so much of the supply chain that it doesn’t matter anymore. Anyone caught selling non debeers gems gets blackballed. Any (((merchants )))) that don’t buy the crap debeers offers the. Gets cut out for future business.


It’s a bullshit system that has wrecked countries and killed millions in its path. I’d be thrilled to see alibaba and other chink Chong internet businesses kill debeers. Then, when the perpetrators are left powerless, make them pay for their crimes and the crimes of their forefathers.

Lab created diamond? You mean cubic zirconia?
 Quoting: Deplorable Azila_Again


Not zirconia lab grown diamonds

Lab created diamonds, also known as engineered or cultured diamonds, are grown in highly controlled laboratory environments using advanced technological processes that duplicate the conditions under which diamonds naturally develop when they form in the mantle, beneath the Earth’s crust. These man-made diamonds consist of actual carbon atoms arranged in the characteristic diamond crystal structure. Since they are made of the same material as natural diamonds, they exhibit the same optical and chemical properties.

If they are they exact same, why not sell at the same price as natural diamonds?
 Quoting: Deplorable Azila_Again


Because women don't value gemstones unless some poor bastard had to lose his life in the process of digging it up in the Congo somewhere.
 Quoting: Interferon


that's BS

if you know a woman like that, don't get involved with her

when I found out about blood diamonds, felt extremely guilty for the diamonds in my wedding rings

the diamond ring i wear now (not married anymore) is lab created and was pretty expensive when purchased (not that i care his little or how much it cost), it has colored diamonds, yellow in the middle and pink and blue on each side if the middle yellow diamond

would never want a real diamond from the ground, even if they weren't blood / conflict diamonds, when it can be created in a lab without harm to people, the earth, the environment

Is the OP really talking about synthetic diamonds, or is this code for something else? Like genetic material or even a clone?

:) Lab created diamonds cost 500 $ to create a carat .I don't know nothing about their price someone on GLP knows how valuable they are

Oh and I paid 15 dollars for this :)
 Quoting: Kek the Winged Hussar


I bet you already have man made diamonds that have been passed off as natural diamonds on the market, with occlusions and all.

Who would know the difference?

 Quoting: Deplorable Azila_Again


there is a real lab create diamond. the common brand name is used. (it's commonly called Moissanite)

the Cubic Zirconia is a different stone, it's hardness is only 8 and it has more dispersion than a diamond.
i think cubic zirconia is a nicer stone. it's about
$30 per carat.
