The Diamond Guide
Whether you're buying a diamond for the first time or looking to upgrade your current gemstone, check out our guide for essential tips and helpful information.
Natural Diamonds vs Lab Grown Diamonds
Lab-grown diamonds have become increasingly popular in the diamond industry. They are physically, chemically and optically identical to natural diamonds and are graded according to the traditional 4Cs: cut, color, clarity and carat.
The main difference between a lab-grown diamond and a natural diamond is their origin: one is created on the Earth's surface, while the other forms deep below the surface.
Colored Diamonds and Precious Stones
Although colorless, or "white," diamonds remain the most popular for engagement rings, many brides also choose colored diamonds or other gemstones to symbolize the beginning of their new adventure.
Certification of our Diamonds
A diamond certificate can be described as a detailed blueprint of a diamond. This certificate, or report, issued by an independent gemological laboratory, includes an analysis of the diamond's characteristics in an easy-to-understand format.
At Affinity Diamonds we specialize in GIA certified mined diamonds and IGI certified lab grown diamonds.
