The Prestwick Place Lab-Grown Diamonds are in fact real diamonds and offer the same brilliance, sparkle, and shine of a natural, mined diamond.

An emerald cut's unique shape and angles capture a diamond's clarity and helps it catch the light. A Lab-Grown Emerald is rectangular in shape means which follows the length of the finger, not the width.  An emerald shape will highlight clarity better than any of the other shapes. This popular style is best known for its beauty & precision. 

Due to the steep, deep facets in an Emerald, the colour and clarity of this cut are important attributes that are more noticeable in an Emerald Cut. Its large table and step cuts retain more colour than other Diamond Shapes, allowing the eye to see the natural colour of the stone.

A lab-grown diamond should be considered and treated just as a natural diamond would as it contains the exact same properties as naturally formed diamonds. 
The only thing that makes a lab-grown diamond different from a mined diamond is its origin.
 
A lab-grown diamond touches fewer hands, is conflict-free, they are less ecologically damaging than a mined diamond and they are 30% to 50% less expensive than their earth mined diamond equivalents.

Our Emerald Cut Lab-Diamond is shape that looks perfect in both a modern or vintage setting.

Why VVS1?
Many Lab-Grown Diamonds available to purchase in-store and online are typically supplied as a SI1 standard only. The Prestwick Lab-Grown Diamond is as a VS1 standard.


The clarity difference between a VS1 and VVS1 lab-diamond is that a VS1 lab-diamond has a higher number of inclusions that affect the diamond's brilliance, appearance and durability. While the two may look identical without magnification, a VVS1 diamond is cleaner and has fewer blemishes. As a lifetime piece, we believe that the quality and clarity of your Lab-Diamond should not be overlooked. 

Sitting comfortably in the top end of the clarity scale, The Prestwick Place VVS1 clarity Lab-Diamonds are two to three grades better than the average VS1 clarity selection for Lab-grown Diamonds. 


Why D Colour?
Diamond colour is typically graded on a scale descending from D, which means no hint of colour, to Z.  A well-cut D colour lab-diamond has a bright, icy white appearance that looks stunningly beautiful.
It is important to note that D colour diamonds are valuable because they are rare, and we believe in providing excellence over cutting corners when it comes to the colour of a Lab-grown diamond.




The Prestwick Diamond is a lab-created stone, meaning it is both ethically and responsibly sourced.
