- Definition
- Lab-created gemstones, also known as synthetic or man-made gems, are produced through various laboratory processes that replicate the conditions under which natural gemstones are formed. These stones possess the same chemical, physical, and optical properties as their natural counterparts but are generally more affordable and environmentally friendly due to their sustainable production methods. Lab gemstones offer an ethical alternative to mined stones, reducing the demand for resource-intensive mining operations. Their availability in flawless qualities and a range of sizes and colors makes them highly desirable for jewelry making, providing a versatile and responsible choice for consumers and designers alike.
