While a lab created diamond is a real diamond, there are diamond simulants&#8211; sometimes known as &#8220;fake diamonds&#8221;&#8211; in existence as well. These include things like cubic zirconia and white topaz, both of which are distinct from lab diamonds.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You can use this device on loose stones and diamonds to ensure that your diamond is not cubic zirconia or white sapphire.

Unintentionally purchasing fake diamonds is understandably disappointing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Cutting-edge technology replicates the diamond growing process by which natural diamonds form.

The processes are similar \u2014 one just happens naturally, while the other occurs in a lab.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Mined Diamonds<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Geologists believe diamonds form naturally deep within the Earth, most having formed between 1 billion to 3 billion years ago. While they don\u2019t know precisely how those diamonds came to be, they believe the process starts with carbon dioxide buried roughly 100 miles beneath Earth\u2019s surface.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The carbon dioxide is exposed to temperatures that are more than 2,200 degrees Fahrenheit and pressures of roughly 727,000 pounds per square inch. The diamonds are transported from deep within the Earth\u2019s core to the surface through deep volcanic explosions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>These natural diamonds are then mined from deep under Earth\u2019s crust.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Lab Created Diamonds<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>There are two processes labs use to grow most lab grown diamonds \u2014 High Pressure-High Temperature (HPHT) and Chemical Vapor Deposition (<u>CVD<\/u>).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">High-Pressure High-Temperature (HPHT)<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>There are three manufacturing processes that result in&nbsp;<a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.gia.edu\/hpht-and-cvd-diamond-growth-processes#:~:text=HPHT%20stands%20for%20high%20pressure,earth%20where%20natural%20diamonds%20form.\"><u>HPHT<\/u><\/a>&nbsp;diamonds: the belt press, the cubic press, and the split-sphere (BARS) press. These processes create intense heat and pressure conducive to diamond growth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>An HPHT diamond begins as a small diamond seed placed into carbon. Using one of the manufacturing processes above, the seed is exposed to temperatures of about 1500 degrees Celsius and pressurized to approximately 1.5 million pounds per square inch.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The pure carbon melts and forms a diamond around the starter seed. Then, it cools and forms a pure carbon diamond.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Chemical Vapor Deposition (CVD)<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>A&nbsp;<a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.cleanorigin.com\/blog\/cvd-diamonds\/\"><u>CVD diamond<\/u><\/a>&nbsp;begins as a thin slice of diamond seed, often an HPHT-produced diamond.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A small chamber filled with carbon-rich gas, such as Methane and other gases, contains the seed crystal. The gases are ionized into plasma using technology similar to microwaves or lasers. The ionization breaks the molecular bonds in the gases, and the pure carbon adheres to the seed crystal and slowly crystallizes. The products are chemical vapor deposition diamonds.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To the naked eye, distinguishing a lab grown diamond from a natural one is impossible. It\u2019s highly unlikely a jeweler in the professional diamond industry could determine whether a diamond is a lab grown or mined with the naked eye.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While processes can identify one from the other, it is incredibly complex and typically only performed in diamond certification labs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">No, You Can\u2019t Tell the Difference Between a Lab Grown Diamond and a Real Diamond.<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.cleanorigin.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/necklaces-1024x538.png\" alt=\"a row of multiple lab grown diamond tennis bracelets\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>However, you can get a larger diamond&nbsp;<a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.cleanorigin.com\/blog\/how-to-talk-engagement-ring-cost\/\"><u>within your budget<\/u><\/a>&nbsp;and make a&nbsp;<a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.cleanorigin.com\/blog\/lab-grown-diamonds-more-eco-friendly\/\"><u>more ethical and environmentally-friendly<\/u><\/a>purchase with a lab grown diamond.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So if you are looking for an&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.cleanorigin.com\/engagement\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><u>engagement ring<\/u><\/a>,&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.cleanorigin.com\/wedding-rings\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><u>wedding ring<\/u><\/a>, or any other diamond jewelry, it often makes more sense to buy a manufactured diamond rather than a natural diamond \u2014 both for the benefit of your wallet and the Earth.

One of the easiest ways to tell is through a simple water test.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Grab an ordinary drinking glass and fill it up three-quarters of the way with water. Place the loose gemstone in the water with care.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The gemstone is a real diamond if it floats to the bottom. It is a fake diamond if it hovers at or below the surface.&nbsp;This is a simple test to see if you might have a real diamond on your hands. Remember, it will only work for loose diamonds. If the stone is in a metal ring, it will alter the test.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How Can You Tell if a Diamond Is Real or Cubic Zirconia?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.cleanorigin.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/studs-1024x538.png\" alt=\"a row of lab grown diamond stud earrings\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Diamonds sparkle because they can bend and refract light. This occurs when light strikes the angled sides on the lower half of the gemstone. To the observer\u2019s eye, the light refracts up through the flat surface on top of the stone. A diamond has \u201cbrilliance\u201d when it refracts radiantly.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Due to a lack of brilliance, substitutes for diamonds, such as cubic zirconia, are easily distinguishable. They cannot refract light well and may not even give off any sparkle at all.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Do Real Diamonds Sparkle Rainbow?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.cleanorigin.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/rainbow-jewels-1024x538.png\" alt=\"a bracelets with colored lab grown diamonds\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Some people think a sign of naturally occurring diamonds is their characteristic sparkling resembling a rainbow. This is a misconception.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Natural diamonds give off a sparkle, but it is white, not colorful.&nbsp;Learning to recognize the brilliance of a diamond will be a good indication that the diamond is real. A trained professional can tell a fake diamond from a real diamond.
