How are lab grown diamonds certified?

Lab grown diamonds have gained popularity as ethical and sustainable alternatives to mined diamonds.

Why grown diamonds are certified

A grading report from an institute like IGI assures buyers that the diamond matches the seller's description.

Beyond verification

• Confidence that the stone's attributes match the claims.
• Documentation useful for insurance.
• Transparency for retailers.

How grown diamonds are graded

1. Cut: the precision of the cut and how well it reflects light. 2. Colour: ranges from D (colourless) to Z. 3. Clarity: internal characteristics and inclusions. 4. Carat: the weight of the stone.

Who certifies

Certification is done by reputable institutes such as IGI, which built the capability to identify and grade grown diamonds. At KIRA, most stones ship IGI certified, with non-certified stones available by choice.

An exciting option

The certification process ensures transparency and authenticity, giving jewellers and buyers assurance on quality.
