Lab-Grown Diamonds: A Growing Trend

Lab-grown diamonds, known as LGDs, are gaining popularity due to their identical chemical composition and crystal structure to natural diamonds, making them indistinguishable without specialized tools. These diamonds are produced in laboratories by replicating the high pressure and heat conditions that create diamonds in nature. In addition to their visual similarity, LGDs are significantly cheaper and quicker to produce, with India contributing around 15% of the global production.
