The stone

A lab-grown diamond is diamond: pure carbon in the same crystal structure, with the same hardness of 10 and the same fire as a mined stone. The difference is origin; it is grown in weeks in a controlled environment rather than over billions of years underground. More in our guide to buying jewelry that lasts.

A gemologist’s note

A bezel wraps the diamond in a rim of gold, so nothing catches on sweaters and the stone is well protected for daily wear. The hinged bail means it can join a chain you already own, or our 1mm cable chain.

Care

Soak in warm water with mild soap and brush gently behind the stone, where skin oils collect. Store it apart from other jewelry.
