The New Era of Brilliance
In recent years, the traditional diamond industry has felt a different kind of pressure—and it isn’t the kind that creates gemstones. As environmental and ethical concerns have come to the forefront, the "old way" of mining has lost its luster. At Mine and Grown, we believe you shouldn't have to choose between a masterpiece and your conscience.

Lab-grown diamonds represent the perfect intersection of high-end quality and moral transparency. Because the concept is still evolving, there’s a fair amount of noise and misinformation out there. We’re here to clear the air. Welcome to Diamonds 101: your definitive guide to the future of fine jewelry.

What exactly is a lab-grown diamond?
Simply put: it is a diamond. Chemically, physically, and optically, these stones are identical to their mined counterparts. The only difference is the origin story. Instead of being pulled from the earth’s depths, they are cultivated in a controlled environment using cutting-edge technology that replicates the natural growing process.

The Science of the Sparkle
Whether a diamond is "natural" or lab-grown, the composition remains the same: 100% carbon forged in high-pressure, high-temperature conditions. At Mine and Grown, we utilize the most advanced methods available—namely High Pressure-High Temperature (HPHT) and Chemical Vapor Deposition (CVD). While the technology is moving fast, our commitment to clarity remains constant. Let’s dive deeper into the process and leave the myths behind.
