Natural Diamond Rings vs. Lab-Grown Diamond Rings

Natural vs. Lab Grown Diamonds

If you have browsed lab-grown diamonds, you’ve probably noticed that you can’t really differentiate them from antique diamonds with the naked eye. You’re not alone; jewelers can’t tell the difference with just their eyes either. But the two really are different. The GIA says that lab-grown diamond rings have an odd fluorescence pattern that’s not present in natural diamonds. This pattern can only be seen through mirroring tools.

When purchasing a diamond ring, verify that it’s natural and not synthetic. A synthetic diamond looks genuine from afar, but you’ll have trouble if you ever decide to sell it. The resale value of lab-grown diamonds is almost non-existent, and if you are lucky to get a buyer, expect to cash in only a fraction of what you’d get for a natural diamond ring.
