Diamond Education

Not all lab-grown diamonds are created equal. Our patented diamond engineering process defies the industry status quo by allowing for uninterrupted creation from beginning to end. The result is a diamond that is simply unmatched, free of any growth lines or graining.

How CVD Lab-grown Diamonds are Grown

In CVD, a thin slice of diamond — called a seed — is placed in a sealed chamber. A carbon-rich gas mixture is then introduced into the chamber, and the gas is ionized into a plasma with microwave energy, heating the gas to over 3000°C. The chemistry created in the plasma along with the high temperature, releases carbon atoms that adhere to the crystal structure of the diamond seed and replicate it.

The Clarity Diamond™ Growth Process

A Clarity diamond is grown via a CVD single growth as grown process. This patented and uninterrupted process allows us to grow larger, brighter, more beautiful diamonds free from any post growth treatment and visible growth lines. The lack of obstructions within the rough combined with superior cutting allow for maximum performance.

Traditional CVD Growth

Typical CVD is grown in a multi-step, start-stop process. This is done to increase the size of the stone but also creates unavoidable growth lines within the diamond. Once the growth stops and then restarts, the conditions that the crystal was originally growing in change.

This change in the conditions leaves a growth interface and visible inclusions can form within these interfaces. These growth lines and inclusions negatively impact the light performance of the diamond.

The diamonds produced using this traditional method, often result in color grades that are subpar. The diamonds are then subjected to HPHT treatment to improve the color. Color can be improved by up to three grades with this treatment.
