Best Quality Diamond Engagement Rings Sydney

 

Ever since 1949, thanks to Marilyn Monroe, Diamonds have been known as a girl’s best friend and they’ve been the first choice for Engagement Rings for even longer. However, more and more young couples have been searching for Diamond alternatives because they are after gems that are more environmentally conscious and more ethically choice.

If you are one of those couples who have searching for more environmentally conscious Diamond Engagement Rings, then you’ve probably come across a Lab Created Diamond or a Lab Grown Diamond. Both stones have come leaps and bounds in recent years due to improved cutting technologies and better manufacturing. They are both essentially Diamonds. They are formed the same way – under intense pressure consisting of the same carbon atoms and are also engineered into the same characteristic diamond crystal structure.

These two gorgeous diamond alternatives let manufacturers press control, alt, delete on approximately a few billion years or so, and they’re still able to achieve the exact same look and feel as the natural Diamond. They are both a 10 on the Moh’s scale of hardness – the same as a natural Diamond – and, they have the same dispersion of light which means they exhibit the exact same dramatic sparkle and shine.

Both the Lab Created Diamond and Lab Grown Diamond are, like the name suggests, created in a lab which means that they are grown and not mined, making them 100% ethically sourced. When you look back in history and take into account the huge social impact as well as environmental footprint that mining has had on the earth, a Lab Created Diamond or Lab Grown Diamond are such ethical choices and often the only choices for conscientious couples.

As time passes, more couples around the world are purchasing Lab Created or Lab Grown Diamond Engagement Rings for their conflict free origins and eco-friendly production but the price is also very eye catching. Whether you are searching for a Diamond alternative in Sydney or across the world, the price of these gems compared to natural Diamonds are significantly better. They are both significantly less of a price tag than natural Diamonds of the same grades – which means we often see buyers saving sometimes up to 70% of the cost. When you consider the same approximate price, buyers may be able to get a larger and higher grade of Diamond, but the choice often comes down to budget and personal taste. However, remember to factor in customs, shipping and GST costs - sometimes purchasing locally can end up costing a lot less than importing. The smaller price point of the Diamond Alternatives mean that some couples can afford to upgrade the setting or choose a set of bands to compliment their Engagement Ring.
