Opinions / thoughts on lab grown diamonds?
Are they worth it?
What should I be on the lookout for?
I don’t really know much about them except that it is now growing in popularity and a cheaper alternative.
I have both diamond necklace and lab grown diamond necklace.
My Tiffany DBTY is my favorite piece ever that I’ve had for years. However when I looked at yellow gold equivalent the prices were much higher so found a lab grown alternative. I justified it as I don’t want to spend “too much” on yellow gold as I gravitate more for wg/silver. I wear yellow rarely.
So far so good, but it was a hasty purchase (unlike me) and now when looking at diamond pieces the affordable pieces are all lab grown. Some pieces look really nice, but don’t know about how long lasting they are or anything.
