Three (BIG) Reasons She’ll Say Yes To A Lab-Grown Diamond

Three Big Reasons She Will Say Yes To A Lab Grown Engagement Ring – Clean Origin Jewelry – Gades Photography 9

When Jack got down on one knee on that Greek mountaintop and asked me to marry him I was elated – tears and laughter instantly erupted from my face – it was such an exciting beautiful moment enveloped by that salty Cycladic breeze. It wasn’t until three minutes in that I remembered (and even had clear enough eyes) to look down and found the most beautiful engagement ring on my finger.

And that’s what it’s all about right? The moment? The person you’re choosing to spend your life with? I never hinted at the kind of ring I wanted, I would have been so happy with any style, stone, cut & size that Jack had chosen for me, I would have even loved a lab-grown diamond!  I am, after all, a sentimental gal.

In comes Clean Origin‘s lab-created diamonds: third generation jewelers who offer a huge variety of classic and modern styles (for a bride perhaps more picky than I) I am confident your love will be elated with one of these stunning rings. Not only will your partner say yes to a lab-grown engagement ring, but I have three big reasons that they would actually be elated and ever-so-proud that you made the conscious decision to opt for the eco-friendly stone.

But first, what is a lab-grown diamond? Let’s consult the professionals at Clean Origin:

“A lab-created diamond is ‘grown’ inside a lab using cutting-edge technology that replicates the natural diamond growing process. The result is a diamond that is chemically, physically, and optically the same as those grown beneath the Earth’s surface.”

So basically, what we have here is the same stone just with a different origin! Now let me tell you the three reasons that set lab-grown diamonds apart from the rest…

1. They’re Environmentally Friendly

An easy sell for me when shopping for just about everything – I’ll always opt for the eco-friendly option. If your gal (or guy) is as concerned as I am about the state of our planet, certainly they’d be proud to wear a stone that represents the commitment to preserving our sacred Earth.

How are they more environmentally friendly you ask? While traditionally mined diamonds have a clear effect on the environment – tearing scars into the Earth and disrupting eco-systems – they also take a considerable amount of energy to deliver from the supplier to the consumer.

While many responsible mined diamond companies have taken steps to minimize these effects, lab-grown diamonds are inherently less destructive to the planet. Lab-grown diamonds require much less fuel to create and growers work as hard as possible to use the least amount of energy possible to curb their own costs. (Bring that spiel to your next family dinner table!)

2. You Get More For Your Money

Who doesn’t like more for less?! Lab-grown diamonds tend to cost 20-30% less than traditional mined diamonds – hello much bigger, sparkling rock!

And less expensive doesn’t mean “cheap”, the only difference between lab-grown and mined diamonds is the origin they come from – the stones themselves are actually just as valuable! So, where does the price cut come from? By eliminating the middlemen – the miners & long supply chain – you get more for your money. (Yes, just like Warby Parker, Dad!)

3. Rest Easy, These Diamonds Are Ethical

Thankfully, in recent years it seems much of the public is concerned about avoiding blood-diamonds when engagement ring shopping.

Yes, you can certainly do your best to purchase mined diamonds from certified, responsible companies that are seemingly regulated by reputable organizations like the Kimberley Process – but, why not leave those worries behind and guarantee yourself peace of mind?

Clean Origin lab-grown diamonds are just that – grown in a lab! Entirely conflict-free you can rest easy knowing there’s no chance your purchase attributed to diamond strife in Africa.
