Their rationale primarily revolves around value for money (55%) and sustainability (43%) as the pivotal factors driving this shift.<\/p>\n<p><script type='text\/javascript'>\nif (detectWidth() < 768) { \ndocument.write(\"<div style='text-align:center;'><span style='text-align:center; font-size:12px; color:#777;'>Advertisement<\/span><center><!-- TA_MOB_G1_BTF3_300x250 t4\/2+ fb (content) --><div data-aaad='true' data-aa-adunit='\/117607917\/TA_MOB_G1_BTF3_300x250'><\/div><\/center><\/div>\");\n} else { document.write('<div id=\\'wi-194906\\'><\/div>'); jQuery('#wi-194906').closest('.side-widget').hide();\n}\n<\/script><br \/>\n<script type='text\/javascript'>\nif (detectWidth() < 768) {document.write('<div id=\\'wi-193994\\'><\/div>'); jQuery('#wi-193994').closest('.side-widget').hide(); \n} else { \ndocument.write(\"<div style='text-align:center;'><span style='text-align:center; font-size:12px; color:#777;'>Advertisement<\/span><center><!--TA_G1_BTF1_728V in content --><div data-aaad='true' data-aa-adunit='\/117607917\/TA_G1_BTF1_728V'><\/div><\/center><\/div>\");\n}\n<\/script><\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">However, a notable 69 percent confessed that they would struggle to differentiate between the two gem varieties. This prompted the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.queensmith.co.uk\/diamond-guides\/lab-grown-diamonds\/lab-diamonds-vs-natural-diamonds\/lab-diamond-poll\">diamond retailer Queensmith<\/a> to conduct an experiment with passers-by, who were both taken aback by the price differential and found it challenging to distinguish between the two types of gems.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Based in London&#8217;s historical Hatton Garden district, Queensmith revealed an astounding surge of 2,860 percent in the market for lab-grown diamonds within a mere five years. In 2019, lab-grown sales constituted just a solitary percent of total diamond sales; however, the ongoing year has witnessed a meteoric rise to 81 percent of the overall sales, and the jeweler is en route to achieving sales of 1,900 lab-grown diamonds in 2023.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A representative from the brand, which initiated the survey, disclosed that a significant 46 percent of individuals were not even cognizant of the existence of lab-grown diamonds.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cIt\u2019s no surprise to see people willing to move away from mined diamonds. Lab-grown diamonds provide a great alternative that is less impactful on the environment, which is a big concern for most people.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Fifty-three percent of individuals intending to get married would opt for a more affordable engagement ring if it allowed them to allocate more funds towards their wedding day. The primary focuses include the venue (53 percent) and the wedding attire (34 percent), followed by the rings (31 percent) in third place.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For a portion of these individuals, this prospective scenario has already materialized. More than twenty-five percent of those surveyed by OnePoll revealed that they either possessed jewelry featuring a lab-grown diamond or were acquainted with someone who did.<\/p>\n<p><script type='text\/javascript'>\nif (detectWidth() < 768) {document.write('<div id=\\'wi-194140\\'><\/div>'); jQuery('#wi-194140').closest('.side-widget').hide(); \n} else { \ndocument.write(\"<div style='text-align:center;'><center><!-- \/117607917\/TA_G_1x1_outstream t4 --><!-- div data-outstream='inarticle'><\/div --><div data-aaad='true' data-aa-adunit='\/117607917\/TA_G_1x1_outstream'><\/div><\/center><\/div>\");\n}\n<\/script><br \/>\n<script type='text\/javascript'>\nif (detectWidth() < 768) { \ndocument.write(\"<div style='text-align:center;'><center><!-- \/117607917\/TA_G_1x1_outstream t4\/fb 2+ --><!-- div data-outstream='inarticle'><\/div --><div data-aaad='true' data-aa-adunit='\/117607917\/TA_MOB_G_1x1_outstream'><\/div><\/center><\/div>\");\n} else { document.write('<div id=\\'wi-195018\\'><\/div>'); jQuery('#wi-195018').closest('.side-widget').hide();\n}\n<\/script><\/p>\n<h3 style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>The Creation Process<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">While not as uncommon as their natural diamond counterparts, these gems are perceived as equally stunning by individuals. They are available in various hues such as yellow, pink, green, orange, blue, and transparent. These man-made diamonds are produced using methods that replicate the natural creation process and are primarily generated through two techniques: chemical vapor deposition (CVD) or high pressure high temperature (HPHT).<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In the HPHT process, pure carbon is compressed within a metal cube and subjected to intense heat and pressure via electric pulses. This leads to the breakdown of carbon, resulting in its crystallization into diamond form. Any minute traces of metals within an HPHT diamond are usually inconspicuous to the naked eye, and many experts consider HPHT diamonds to possess higher quality compared to CVD diamonds. These diamonds are reported to share the same atomic structure as mined diamonds, thereby maintaining optical, chemical, and physical identicalness.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cAs people become more knowledgeable about lab diamonds, I\u2019m sure we\u2019ll see increased demand and clients looking to learn more for themselves.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><em>What are your thoughts?<\/em> <strong>Please comment below and share this news!<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/trueactivist.com\">True Activist<\/a> \/ Report a typo<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Lab-grown diamonds are gaining popularity among newlyweds who are seeking a more ecologically responsible alternative to traditionally mined gems.
