About mined diamonds under $4000
You can get a diamond from 0.75 to 2 carat within a budget of $4000. The price usually varies based on the diamond's cut, clarity, and color. If you have a limited budget, check out our lab diamonds under $3000, they are as good in quality as their mined counterparts.
Unlike natural diamonds, the price of lab grown diamonds does not increase exponentially with carat size. For instance, a round-cut, 2-carat natural diamond starts at about $14,000. You can get a lab-grown diamond of the same carat size for about half the cost. But if you value the rarity of naturally occurring diamonds, then go for one. It will be great investment as well, as the value of mined diamonds only increases with time.
Lab and mined diamonds look similar and have the same quality, range of shapes and carat weights. Mined diamonds form under the surface of earth over billions of years, naturally, and therefore, unique and rare. They are priced 40% higher than their lab counterparts but their resale value only increases with time.

Why Choose Lab-Diamonds?
Lab created diamonds (also known as man-made diamonds, and cultured diamonds), are pure, crystallized carbon diamonds grown in a controlled laboratory environment. They have the exact same physical, chemical, and optical properties as earth-mined diamonds. They are also graded on the same scale as earth-mined diamonds and come with a grading report/certificate.
ECO FRIENDLY
Lab-grown diamonds require less space and resources to produce stones than that of the monolith mines that wreak havoc on local ecosystems.
VALUE
Lab-grown diamonds offer excellent value and are 30-50% more affordable than mined diamonds of comparable size and quality.
CONFLICT-FREE
Lab-grown diamonds never fund foreign conflict. Further, work conditions are carefully regulated and never exploit child laborers.
