An Incredible Yellow Gold Showpiece
Classic 4 Prong Solitaire Engagement Ring
This gorgeous 4 prong Solitaire Engagement Ring is a classic, and the definition of understated elegance. It's crafted with a
yellow gold band, enhancing its traditional charm and warmth.
The use of white gold for the
prongs is not only aesthetically pleasing but also strategically chosen for its functional brilliance. By displaying a larger area of your lab diamond, you can maximize light return and showcase its exceptional cut and clarity.
Showcasing an awesome Round Cut Lab Grown Diamond, this ring can be a true testament to the tremendous progress lab-grown diamonds have made. When you choose this ring, you not only embrace its
classic and refined aesthetic but also ensure that your diamond's inherent beauty is magnified.
Petite Pave & Dazzling Diamond Center
Valoria Petite Shared Prong Diamond Engagement Ring
Don't underestimate the importance of matching the engagement ring to the wearer. A wedding ring becomes a part of your identity, intended to be worn every day, confidently and comfortably.
Small-handed individuals may find a petite diamond on a thin band a graceful choice. A
petite pave setting like the exquisite one from designer Valoria pictured above, is a great way of adding sparkle while maintaining a delicate appearance. Perfect for that dream lab diamond centerpiece to steal the show.
The way a designer elects to use those decorative smaller diamonds on the shank of a pave engagement ring varies widely and can lend an entirely different feel to a ring, depending on the placement. The more ornate pave rings will give a ring a vintage look, while the simpler shanks will give it a more contemporary appearance.
A stunning lab created diamond can be beautifully enhanced by being set in a ring of sleek accent diamonds, adding to its complexity and eye-catching appearance.
Dainty Contemporary Band & Modest Center Diamond
Contemporary Solitaire Engagement Ring for Princess
Whether you call it modern, original, or current, the "Contemporary" Solitaire Engagement Ring for
Princess Cut Diamonds is a stunning way to display your diamond. This four-prong V-Tip head provides utmost security while allowing your diamond to shine. Adding a dash of flair to the design is the subtle pinching on the sleek shank near the head.
The main benefit of a
dainty engagement ring is that, with a thinner band, you create the feel of a larger diamond, which is helpful if the center diamond is of a smaller
carat weight. If you were worried that your budget might not accommodate impressive carat size, a lab diamond may convince you otherwise!
Asymmetrical Elegance
Simon G. MR2549 Fabled Bezel Solitaire Engagement Ring
In a trend that veers away from tradition - much like lab diamonds - more people are proposing with asymmetrical engagement rings. Customers now seek rings that reflect their personalities, all without breaking the bank.
These striking rings catch the eye with their statement shapes; asymmetry can work fantastically, if you choose a carefully balanced and executed design, such as the
Simon G Fabled Bezel Solitaire Engagement Ring. The inset bezel design keeps your lab created diamond safe, with a result that is both current and fluid.
Asymmetric rings are a great way to express yourself in a playful, non-conventional way. It's hard to resist a fresh take on a classic.
Vintage and Antique-Style Engagement Rings

Verragio brand has fully embraced the desire for engagement rings that evoke a romantic past.
These styles are popular with couples seeking rings with character and a story to tell as unique as theirs.

modern lab diamond technology with vintage-inspired designs creates a breathtaking and timeless result. This combination not only results in a visually striking and unique piece but also symbolizes a connection between the rich history of romance and the advancements of the present.

Lab Diamond FAQs
A new era in gemstones and jewelry has been made possible by lab-grown diamonds, which have been of major interest to consumers at Whiteflash and across the industry.
It has raised numerous questions about these diamonds. Are they real diamonds? What is their manufacturing process, and how do they compare with natural diamonds? Do they hold their value over time?
We will explore the fascinating world of lab-grown diamonds, answering all your questions one by one, and shedding light on everything you need to know about them. We're going to demystify the key aspects of lab-grown diamonds and examine their fascinating world below.
1. Is a Lab Grown Diamond a Real Diamond?
1.04 ct D VS1 Round Cut Precision Lab Grown Diamond
There is a question on everyone's lips: are lab-grown diamonds real? It is a question that is asked more than you think. Yes,
a lab grown diamond is real, it is a synthetic diamond; crystallized carbon with essentially the same chemical, physical, and optical properties as natural diamond.
As such, it has many advantages for engagement rings and the fine jewelry industry as a whole.
2. How Are Lab-Grown Diamonds Made?
Known also as LGDs, synthetic, man-made, or lab created diamonds, lab grown diamonds were first produced experimentally in the 1950s, only becoming commercially available at mass in the last decade.
As the name implies, lab-grown diamonds are grown in laboratories or factories, and they are usually ready within a few weeks. In one growth technique (HPHT) a massive press simulates the conditions in the Earth's core that provide natural diamonds. You can
learn more about the different processes here.
3. What Is the Difference Between Lab-Grown Diamonds and Diamond Simulants?
Moissanite or
cubic zirconia may look like diamonds to those who are unfamiliar with them, but they are chemically different and cannot match real diamonds on durability or optics.
It is clear that lab-grown diamonds are superior to diamond simulants such as cubic zirconias, which are now ubiquitous in costume jewelry. As a valuable addition to the jewelry industry, lab-grown diamonds will have a major role to play in engagement rings and higher-end fashion jewelry.
4. Natural vs. Lab Diamonds: Which is More Affordable?
Valoria Flora Twist Solitaire Engagement Ring
Lab-grown diamonds are generally much more affordable compared to their natural counterparts. Because lab-grown diamonds are produced under controlled conditions, they eliminate the uncertainty associated with natural diamonds, resulting in greater accessibility and lower prices.
This affordability means
lab-grown diamonds will fit just about any budget, making your dream proposal that little bit more accessible.
In most cases,
people opt for larger carat lab diamonds with the cost savings, or fall in love with an exquisite designer setting. The price of natural diamonds might have prevented some from affording a beautiful designer setting, but lab-grown diamonds are here to show you just how feasible it can be.
