Why are people still overpaying for mined diamonds?

Why are people still paying so much more for mined diamonds, when lab grown ones look exactly the same?

Never liked diamonds. They’re boring, unlike sapphire or emerald! They are extremely beautiful and have a character to them.

They already know how to tell the difference. Lab made are totally clear. Natural are a little tiny bit cloudy no matter what. No matter the colour cut clarity.

People think lab made makes them mass produced plastic shit. People need to realize they have the same quality as other diamonds and aren’t easy to make.

50+ yrs jeweler gemologist I was anti lab grown in beginning but they are impressive affordable and stunningly beautiful I'm on board good bye DeBeers

Honestly, I really hate the fact that they made it so. Diamonds are so much more expensive. Because the people selling them wanted it to stay.That way, even though there's a shit ton of diamond, you pay more than what you could sell it for.

Yeah diamonds are most certainly NOT a rare gem at all...

[contessachristabella]

I agree with everything except they can tell the difference between lab grown and mined. Also DeBeers started making Lab grown diamond's to compete with the others, but people are buying so much man-made stones that DeBeers can't sell there mined ones for the outrageous prices, as before, so they took the mined diamond's off the market and are just trying to unload their Lab grown stones. Instead of just selling their natural diamond's at a lower price, they're holding on to them hoping the market will change back into their favor.

The difference is diamonds are one of the hardest materials on earth

They don’t look exactly the same. They are the same. Except probably an engraving lab grown diamonds are the exact same thing as mined

[BOWUNCE]

You know what? Why even diamonds some metals are better

Ok this is not completely true. Frist, almost all "Gem Quality" facetable stones are rare according to size, clarity, and color. Second, the depositions that diamonds form in like a kimberlite are rare ( think about it, have you ever found a rough diamond on the ground?). Last, man made diamond are distinguished by lack of inclusion and lack of fluorescence in most cases. In conclusion, man made diamond are usually not as durable and require a lot of energy to produce so they are not exactly environment friendly either so to say that a natural large, clear, orange or red diamond is not rare is simple not true.

Real diamonds have inclusions where fake diamonds do not

Lab are much weaker. Inferior in comparison sadly
