INFINIDAD DE CUALIDADES
Certificado de diamante creado en laboratorio
Todos los diamantes de la colección Galaxy y Eternity creados en laboratorio los analiza el IGI, el Instituto Gemológico Internacional, para confirmar la calidad de cada piedra según las 4 C de la clasificación del diamante. Las colecciones solo incluyen los mejores diamantes creados en laboratorio.
Como prueba de origen, cada diamante creado en laboratorio de 0,25 quilates o más incluye un grabado láser. Esto solo es visible bajo un gran aumento, lo que identifica el diamante como una joya Swarovski de gran belleza.
Swarovski Created Diamonds
Hecho con energía 100% renovable
Para Swarovski, es un logro en nuestro camino hacia una elección consciente y una reducción del impacto en nuestro planeta y sus habitantes. Galaxy y Eternity son las primeras colecciones Swarovski Created Diamonds en las que se ha utilizado energía renovable en todo el proceso de crecimiento, tallado y pulido de los diamantes creados en laboratorio, así como en la producción de las piezas de joyería.
Las colecciones Swarovski Created Diamonds también se han creado con oro 100% reciclado, que reduce aún más la huella de CO₂ de la joyería y reutiliza recursos valiosos.
Moissanita frente a diamante creado en laboratorio
Title:
Los diamantes creados en laboratorio no se distinguen de los diamantes extraídos. Tienen las mismas propiedades de brillo, fuego y centelleo. Sin embargo, las moissanitas se diseñan para crear la ilusión de un diamante, pero visualmente y en lo que a composición se refiere son bastante diferentes. Su durabilidad, brillo y color son bastante diferentes. Las moissanitas no se califican con las 4 C como los diamantes creados en laboratorio, sino que solo se califican por el color.

Frequently asked questions
FAQ
What are laboratory grown diamonds?
Laboratory grown diamonds are 100% identical to mined diamonds. They are just grown from a ‘seed’ in a laboratory, building layer upon layer using HPHT (high pressure high temperature) or CVD (chemical vapour deposition) to replicate the natural process over several days or weeks, rather than in the earth over millions of years. Aside from their origin, they are exactly the same.
Are laboratory grown diamonds less expensive than mined diamonds?
Laboratory grown diamonds offer the freedom to explore more breadth of jewellery in terms of sizes, shapes and settings than ever before, and more easily. Swarovski is proud to offer modern, inspired designs with premium quality diamonds, meaning you get larger and higher quality stones tailored to every price point.
How are laboratory grown diamonds made?
Laboratory grown diamonds are made using an innovative process that flawlessly replicates nature, resulting in a laboratory grown diamond that is indistinguishable from a mined diamond in all chemical, physical, and optical attributes. There are two ways to replicate the diamond formation process: HPHT (high pressure high temperature) and CVD (chemical vapour deposition).
The technology is as brilliant as the laboratory grown diamonds themselves. In both cases, a tiny diamond seed is nurtured with carbon atoms under laboratory conditions of intense heat and pressure, forming layer by layer. Each laboratory grown diamond forms in its own way, with one-of-a-kind inclusions and unique growth patterns.

Are laboratory grown diamonds real diamonds? What is the difference between laboratory and mined?
Yes, laboratory created diamonds are 100% diamonds. They are identical to mined diamonds possessing the same chemical composition, hardness, brilliance and fire. Both are 100% carbon. One is born in a laboratory, the other one in nature - just as a greenhouse-grown orchid is identical to one found in nature. The only difference is their origin.
Are laboratory grown diamonds and mined diamonds the same?
Laboratory grown diamonds are 100% the same as a mined diamond in all optical, chemical and physical aspects. Only the diamond’s origin – from the earth or from a laboratory – is different. This difference can only be identified with sophisticated laboratory equipment. Laboratory grown diamonds processed in Swarovski Created Diamonds jewellery can be identified by a laser engraving on all laboratory grown diamonds 0.25 ct and larger.
Can a Jeweller tell that a diamond is laboratory created?
No, a jeweller cannot tell the difference between a laboratory grown diamond and a mined diamond with the naked eye or using traditional jeweller’s equipment. Sophisticated instruments are required from a gemmological institute like IGI to find out if a diamond is laboratory grown, or grown in the earth.
Could laboratory grown diamonds test as Moissanite?
No, they are identical to mined diamonds possessing the same chemical composition, hardness, brilliance and fire. Both are 100% carbon.
Moissanite, while also created in a laboratory, is a silicon carbide engineered to give the illusion of similarity to diamonds, but is compositionally and visually quite different.

What is a diamond simulant?
Diamond simulants such as Cubic Zirconia and Moissanite are not diamonds in any way, but gemstones manufactured to look like diamonds which are physically, visually and compositionally very different.
Is a Cubic Zirconia the same as a laboratory grown diamond?
No, Cubic Zirconia is not the same as laboratory grown diamonds. Cubic Zirconia is a diamond simulant and is physically, visually and compositionally very different to a diamond. Conversely, laboratory grown diamonds are 100% identical to their mined counterparts, except for the way they originate.
