About Mined H-VS1 Diamonds
H-VS1 is a popular choice for diamonds due to its desirable characteristics. The "H" represents the diamond's color grade, indicating a near-colorless appearance. This ensures that the diamond appears bright and radiant. The "VS1" denotes the clarity grade, indicating very slight inclusions that are difficult to detect under magnification. This combination of color and clarity makes H-VS1 diamonds an excellent choice as they offer a balance between quality and affordability. They possess impressive visual appeal while still maintaining a relatively lower price compared to higher color and clarity grades.
VS1 and VS2 are both excellent clarity grades for diamonds. VS1 diamonds have extremely minor inclusions that are difficult to see under 10x magnification, while VS2 diamonds have slightly more noticeable inclusions, but still not easily visible to the naked eye. The distinction between the two grades is subtle, making them both highly desirable choices for those seeking high-quality diamonds. The decision between VS1 and VS2 would depend on personal preferences and budget considerations. G-VS2 diamonds are also a good choice for size vs value.
The difference between G and H color diamonds is relatively subtle. G and H are both near-colorless grades on the diamond color scale, with G being slightly higher on the scale than H. G color diamonds appear slightly whiter or more colorless compared to H color diamonds, but the distinction is typically not noticeable to the naked eye. The color variations between G and H diamonds are more evident when viewed side by side under controlled lighting conditions. However, in most settings, such as when the diamond is mounted in jewelry, the color difference between G and H is generally difficult to detect. Choosing between G and H color diamonds often comes down to personal preference and budget considerations.
The choice between lab-grown or mined diamonds depends on your personal preferences and values. Here are some factors to consider:
1. Ethical and Environmental Considerations: Lab-grown diamonds are considered more ethical and environmentally friendly as they do not involve mining practices, which can have social and environmental impacts. If supporting sustainable and eco-friendly options aligns with your values, lab-grown diamonds may be a better choice.
2. Budget: Lab-grown diamonds are often more affordable than their mined counterparts. If budget is a significant consideration for you, opting for a lab-grown diamond can allow you to get a larger or higher-quality stone for the same price compared to a mined diamond.
3. Rarity and Tradition: Mined diamonds have a longstanding tradition and carry a sense of rarity due to their formation deep within the Earth over millions of years. If the traditional and symbolic value of a mined diamond holds significance to you, it may be the preferred choice.
4. Physical and Chemical Properties: Both lab-grown and mined diamonds possess the same physical and chemical properties, so their visual appearance and durability are comparable. It ultimately comes down to personal preference.
Consider evaluating these factors and discussing them with reputable jewelers to make an informed decision that aligns with your values, budget, and desired aesthetic.
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.
