Q:
What do all these terms mean: synthetic, artificial,
cultured, cultivated, lab-grown diamonds?
A: All these terms talk about the
same product but define it from different angles. New Age
Diamonds are real diamonds and they are: cultivated
and lab-grown since the technologies and equipment
of the growing process are acquired by scientists in
research laboratory conditions and they are
synthetic
meaning they occur not from the Earth's mantle.
We prefer to call our diamonds cultivated or
lab-grown diamonds simply because it best depicts
the essence of their creation as we have captured and
recreated the forces found deep inside the Earth in the lab.

Q: Is cultivated
diamond similar to CZ, Moissanite in any way?
A: Simulants like CZ, maisonette,
Fianit, Yttrium Zirconium Oxide (YZrO2) are not diamonds but
only simulants, that simulate visual effect of a real
diamond. We call New Age Diamonds' stones diamonds because
these are real diamonds with all the optical, chemical and
physical properties of natural ones.

Q:
What do Diamond Tests say about lab-grown diamonds?
A: New Age Diamonds stones share
identical optical, chemical, and physical properties of
natural diamonds. They have the same brilliance, fire,
luster, hardness, toughness, and gravity.
Diamond-tester confirms this is a real diamond. A
full grading certificate is available for all New Age
Diamonds stones above 0.5 C.
This certificate is issued by an authoritative, independent
Gemological Lab, GSI (Gemological Science International New
York). The certificate confirms the weight, cut, clarity,
color, symmetry as well as the polish quality of the
diamond. Above all, the stones receive laser inscription
that confirms the crystal origin.

Q: What
colors are available?
A: Currently New Age Diamonds
produces loose diamonds of three main colors and
their various tints: Yellow-orangey, Light Greenish and Deep
Red.

Q: Is
it possible that Cultivated Diamonds will lose their price
with time?
A: Absolutely not. Cultivated
color diamonds will not loose their value with time. A very
high production cost and the complexity of the technological
process in creating these individually grown diamonds, keep
their numbers small and their quality and value high.

Q: Are
there any dangerous admixtures added to Cultivated Diamonds?
A: The process of diamond creation
in the lab is very similar to the process that naturally
occurs in the Earth’s mantle. The admixtures we add are
similar to those in the nature. Read

Q: Why
should I buy a lab-grown diamond?
A: A lab-grown diamond is a real
diamond and will never stop being a luxury gemstone.
Moreover cultivated diamonds are produced in an
environmentally friendly HPHT method, not burrowed from a
mine. Plus, they carry all the characteristics of a real
diamond to your door with a less burden on the pocket.
