Clarity Diamond

Our Technology

Non-stop research, development, and innovation is key to creating the best possible diamonds. Our team of talented developers and scientists consistently challenge what’s possible, inspiring confidence at every point in a diamond’s journey. With Clarity we don’t compromise, we invest in ourselves; in the time, effort and means to develop and build our own growth systems and science to ensure we can produce top-quality engineered diamonds from start to finish.  

Clarity Diamond™’s cutting-edge growing technology produces diamonds with a patented and unique diamond engineering process, allowing for uninterrupted growth from beginning to end. Clarity’s signature CVD (Chemical Vapor Deposition) method allows for slow, precision-controlled growth without interruption. This method focuses on the diamond’s ultimate quality, not the speed of production, resulting in a lab-grown diamond like no other.  
In order to achieve this remarkable result, Clarity manufactures and operates its own growth systems in its state-of-the-art facility in Austin, Texas.

OUR GROWTH PROCESSHow are Clarity diamonds made?

Clarity Diamond’s patented technology creates diamonds in a single growth process, meaning there is no human interventioin in the growth process once it is started.  

In CVD diamond growth, 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. 

 Clarity Diamond increases a stones quality thru this slow, uninterrupted growth, unlike other methods that are often interrupted while the diamond is growing. This patented technology allows the diamonds to grow free of growth layers, reducing visible inclusions and eleminating the need for any post growth treatment, commonly found in other lab grown diamonds.

DIAMOND SEED

Clarity diamonds start with a diamond seed of the highest quality to produce a single diamond rough.
THE PUCK

Seeds are then placed onto a puck, and the puck is placed in the CVD reactor.
CVD REACTOR

The diamond puck is placed into the reactor the diamond growth process begins with our patented recipe,  allowing our diamonds to grow slowly and intentionally.
Rough Diamond

Once the rough diamonds have grown to their desired size, they are removed from the reactor and the diamond polishing phase begins.
Cut

All Clarity Diamond's are cut to the utmost precision to exhibit exceptional light return.  All rounds diamonds are 3X and showcase hearts and arrows, and premium cut on all the fancies.

Our Diamonds Outperform

Cut coupled with the quality of the diamond rough ultimately determines the overall performance of a diamond.  Since Clarity diamonds have no growth layers and cut to the highest standards, their optical properties can be maximized.

In regular CVD diamonds, growth layers can cause variations in the refractive index within the diamond. This is because the lines are areas where the atomic structure might be slightly misaligned or have impurities, leading to differences in how light is refracted within the diamond. Clarity is able to maximize the light performance of every diamond by being free of any growth layers. Cut is also a crucial factor in determining a diamond’s capacity to engage with light. A well-cut diamond has the power to truly captivate while a poorly cut diamond is dull and lifeless.  This is a difference visible to the naked eye and why Clarity spends so much time focusing on the cut of our diamonds.

All Clarity Diamonds™ are cut in our state-of-the-art facility in Vietnam and are cut to the utmost precision to exhibit exceptional light return. All our rounds are 3X and showcase hearts and arrows, meeting the highest standards of the industry as an AGS ideal cut standard (CTA AGS Ideal), and our fancies are VG+.

All Clarity diamonds are GIA certified

GIA is the industry’s top grading lab, providing peace of mind for our customers that their Clarity diamond is accurately assessed by a trusted third party. All of our diamonds are graded by GIA in their US locations.  

Only a small percentage of natural and lab-grown diamonds meet the high standards for an AGS Ideal Report, reflecting superior craftsmanship and exceptional light performance. All our round diamonds are accompanied with an AGS Ideal Report. 

Not all grading labs are the same and we are proud to offer you the best diamond grading report for you Clarity Diamond™.

FAQs

A lab-grown diamond is a gem identical in chemical composition to a mined diamond but grown in a laboratory environment, rather than mined from the earth.  


Lab-grown diamonds are real diamonds in every way. In 2018 the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) ruled that “A diamond is a diamond, no matter whether it is grown in a lab or comes out of the ground.”

There are two different methods used for producing lab-grown diamonds. HPHT: High Pressure High Temperature and CVD: Chemical Vapor Deposition. 

HPHT is the traditional method that aims to mimic the conditions found naturally in the Earth by using large mechanical presses to apply high pressure and high temperatures to a diamond seed.   

CVD, or chemical vapor deposition, is a method that involves filling a vacuum chamber with carbon-containing gas, heating the gas, causing it to decompose (?) onto a diamond seed, causing it to grow. This method uses very controlled conditions, allowing for a more precise and consistent growth.   

Typical CVD diamonds are grown via a multi-step start-stop process that is repeated multiple times during the growth cycle.  Between each start-stop cycle, the rough diamond is removed from the reactor and laser trimmed of inclusions and other defects.  The surface is then polished and returned to the reactor. 

Diamonds produced in this manner exhibit unavoidable growth lines within the diamond. Once the growth stops and then restarts, the conditions that the crystal was originally growing cannot immediately be replicated. 

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. 

As you see here, most diamonds do not have growth lines that are lined up with the table.  The diamonds are cut to maximize size which puts the growth lines in varying places. 

In addition to growth lines, diamonds produced using typical CVD method, often result in color grades that are subpar. The diamonds are then subjected to HPHT treatment to improve the color. Often times this color can be improved up to three grades.   

Post Growth treatment is listed on the grading reports for both IGI and GIA under the additional comments section. 

In addition to the technology just not being available to produce premium LGDs before Clarity, even just producing high-quality CVD goods can cost manufacturers 2-3 times more than low quality CVD.  

Consequently, these diamonds command significantly different wholesale prices, leading to varying retail prices.  This has lead to a significant portion of manufactures producing for speed and cost efficiency only.
