Novita Diamonds in UK

 

NovitaDiamonds that are grown in a lab and mimic the way natural diamonds are created at the bottom of the earth's surface are called Lab Grown diamonds. They are also known as Lab Made diamonds, Cultured diamonds, Above Earth diamonds, or Man Made diamonds.

 

General Electric in the mid-1950s first created it. However, these diamonds are aggressive, gritty, of low aesthetic quality, and were originally intended only for a variety of industrial applications. Since then, thanks to tremendous advances in HPHT (High Pressure High Temperature) and CVD (Chemical Vapor Deposition) technology, we are now able to develop some of the finest gem-quality stones that are perfect for special occasions.

 

However, the process is far from easy and the technology is very expensive. 

What is the process of upgrading Berlian Lab? Just like the majority of organic products that we see in our lives every day, both methods, CVD and HPHT, start with diamond seed. Putting this seed through extreme conditions in a highly controlled area, very similar to areas at the base of the Earth's crust, the result is a rock that beautifully displays the same character and chemical qualities of any mined diamond found at the bottom of the earth. 

HPHT was the initial procedure and took place in a small capsule, able to withstand very large temperatures with great pressure applied from all sides, a kind of pressure that occurs at the bottom of the earth's surface. Starting with the seed crystal, pure organic carbon matter is dropped via a molten metal flux, allowing it to adhere to the crystal. It then develops gradually, so the aggressive rock is an octahedral cube.

CVD is another method used, in which the diamond starts from the seed plate, growing slowly from a carbon-rich gas. The energy source, a kind of microwave beam, is emitted through a cloud of high-temperature plasma-like gas. This breaks down the molecule causing the carbon atoms to precipitate, falling onto the seed plate. Crystallization then begins and continues for several weeks. The aggressively developed stones display a flat tabular shape with black graphite edges.

 

Just as diamonds are mined on earth, no 2 diamonds are created in the same laboratory. They most likely have inclusions and imperfections that are as naturally intertwined as a diamond that has formed in the ground. It is for this alibi that laboratory-implanted diamond evaluations follow the exact same criteria as those mined- 4C.

 

CARAT (weight of diamond)

 

Similar to natural diamonds, lab grown diamonds also fluctuate in dimensions (carat weight). Again this is mainly due to the similarity of the conditions under which lab diamonds are made and unfortunately because making large diamonds in a lab is just as difficult as making them naturally.

 

COLOR& CLARITY

 

The range for laboratory-grown rocks is as wide and varied as those mined; from D to Meter, Champagne to Brown, Yellow, Blue, etc. Even in the case of Clarity, one can find all kinds of inclusions in laboratory grown stones commonly used by gemologists, jewelers, and diamond traders in diamonds mined in the earth for centuries.

CUT 

The iconic shape of a diamond is a cut we all know well, which is sure to be judged by its perfection, polish, and symmetry regardless of whether it comes from a lab or has been mined. Each stone developed in the lab still has to be cut to that perfect diamond shape. 

In contrast to cheap diamond imitations, lab grown diamonds have the exact same luster, flash, fire and brilliance as mined diamonds. One of the significant differences between mined diamonds and artificial diamonds is the origin of the diamonds. Moreover, highly experienced gemologists cannot tell the difference between lab-grown diamonds and mined diamonds. 

Understanding where the true value of a diamond lies is critical for diamonds mined in the earth as well as those grown in laboratories. The majority of people are very sure that the diamonds that are mined are very, very rare. This is not true. In fact, there are so many diamonds mined in the world that by the late 1880s they were basically mistaken for a semi-precious stone equivalent to today's turquoise or topaz.

There was a significant oversupply at the time, which paved the way for a few very rich and powerful people to control the massive domination of the entire diamond industry. It was a price fixing effort that has been called "the most successful cartel arrangement in modern trading history" (The Atlantic, February 1982). 

Which means what a lot of people don't realize is that even though mining a diamond deposit is not a cheap thing, especially when considering how much ground one has to dig to extract it, the cost to produce one carat of diamonds mined in the earth (from grinding to being aggressive in the hand) ) is actually about the same as what it costs to create lab-grown diamonds (from seed to aggressive in the hand).

Therefore, the post-development creation process is a major part of the diamond's value. This process begins with finding or growing aggressive stones which include selecting, sorting, cutting, polishing, grading, and certifying/laser the stone inscriptions. This is what we call the Rough to Retail part of the diamond life. This process is performed in exactly the same way for lab-grown or mined diamonds, practicing the same high levels of integrity and craftsmanship, with great attention to detail. All evaluations and certifications performed on laboratory grown diamonds are subjected to the same stringent standards as when quantifying and certifying mined stones, treating each stone as unique, and accounting for all of them individually.
