  2. Lab Grown Vs Natural Diamond, One Has Resale Value, The Other Does Not

     

    Lab Grown Vs Natural Diamond, One Has Resale Value, The Other Does Not

     

    Demand for lab-grown diamonds has rapidly risen in the past five years, as consumers drawn to the idea of getting a bigger, better quality diamond for their budget are buying into a diamond product that has the same chemical and optical properties as natural diamond.

     

    Claims by lab-grown diamond producers and sellers that a diamond is a diamond no matter its origin seem to suggest that diamonds made in a lab and naturally occurring diamonds are equal in all respects, including market value.

     

    What consumers who have bought or might buy lab-grown diamonds may not know, is that if they decide to

    Why Outsourcing Certain Diamond & Jewelry Jobs Makes Good Business Sense for Jewelers

     

    Outsourcing always makes good business sense for companies, both big and small. Generally speaking, outsourcing improves efficiency, reduces costs, and allows companies to focus on their core business.

    Test Recycled Diamonds, Offer As Design Option & Extension Of The Estate Case

     

    Over the past couple of years fashion-minded shoppers have placed an even bigger emphasis on sustainability, with fine jewelry topping their wish lists. In particular, recycled diamonds are becoming increasingly important for jewelers, as the global diamond-mining yield continues to diminish, reports Women’s Wear Daily (WWD) in August 2021.

    The popularity of recycled diamonds has increased dramatically since the pandemic, with many engagement ring shoppers asking for recycled stones. Jay Moncada, owner of Perpetuum Jewels, told WWD that before the pandemic four out of 10 engagement ring shoppers inquired about recycled diamonds, and now that number is closer

  8. Good As New, Overcoming Recycled Diamonds’ Inferiority Complex

     

    Good As New, Overcoming Recycled Diamonds’ Inferiority Complex

     

    Diamond is the hardest mineral on the planet, so it’s no wonder it’s regarded as the ideal product for recycling. Because of its strength and durability, diamond can be used more than once without trace-of-wear.

    Recycled diamonds actually offer the perfect story of sustainability — averting the need to mine or grow in a lab a new diamond product. Recycled diamonds also deliver on natural diamond’s “forever” promise, by maintaining their value as a precious, finite gemstone, and as an enduring symbol of love.

    Yet, the perception exists that if a product is recycled/reclaimed/repurposed it may not be of superior quality.

  9. What’s Driving Rising Prices for Small Diamonds in 2022?

     

    What’s Driving Rising Prices for Small Diamonds in 2022?

     

    High demand for diamonds throughout 2021, coupled with less natural diamonds being produced and manufactured, is causing the rise in diamond prices that is impacting retail in 2022.

    The increase in prices is driven by strong demand for jewelry in the United States and China, set against limited supply, as diamond mining and cutting remain low, finds recent research by the market intelligence platform, IndexBox.

    Natural diamond prices are increasing dramatically because of the high demand and limited supply that is due to the fixed number of diamond manufacturers and the cost of manufacturing. Some areas of diamond supply are becoming increasingly more difficult to source, mostly smaller sizes in commercial quality, particularly

  10. Recycled Diamonds Vs Lab-Grown - Which Are More Sustainable?

     

    Recycled Diamonds Vs Lab-Grown - Which Are More Sustainable? 

    The lab-grown diamond category has exploded on the consumer market in the last decade, particularly the past few years, positioning itself as an eco-friendly, sustainable alternative to natural diamonds.

    But are lab-grown diamonds a more sustainable diamond option than using recycled natural diamonds?

    Lab-grown diamond producers market their products as “less of a threat” to the environment than natural diamond mining. They point to the fact that their processes use less water, emit fewer greenhouse gasses, and do not disrupt the earth to bring a diamond to market, as compared to mining diamonds. 

    Yet they speak little of the enormous energy needed to grow diamonds. Diamonds are
