ARE LAB GROWN DIAMONDS CONSIDERED FAKE?

THE ANSWER

No. Lab grown diamonds are real diamonds. The FTC classifies them as real diamonds. They have the same chemical composition as mined diamonds. Same crystal structure. Same hardness. Same optical properties. Same sparkle. They are not cubic zirconia. They are not moissanite. They are not glass. They are carbon atoms arranged in a diamond crystal lattice. The only difference is where they formed. One came from the ground. The other from a laboratory. Calling them fake is like calling ice from your freezer fake ice. It is the same material made in a different place. Lab diamonds are genuine diamonds by every scientific and legal measure.
