About Lab-Grown Diamond Jewelry

Learn About the brand

Harris Jeweler carries lab-grown diamond jewelry in Troy, Ohio.

Lab-grown diamonds are not new technology. Scientists produced the first reproducible synthetic diamonds in the 1950s, and for decades the output went into industrial cutting and grinding applications because the stones were too small and too included for jewelry. It took another fifty years of refinement before growers could reliably produce gem-quality crystals at meaningful size, which is why the category only reached jewelry cases in the last decade or so.

A lab-grown diamond has the same chemical composition, crystal structure, hardness, and optical properties as a mined diamond. The difference is origin, not material. The practical effect for shoppers is straightforward: a larger stone or a higher clarity grade for the same budget.

Our lab-grown selection includes engagement rings, studs, pendants, tennis bracelets, and fashion pieces, and most of our bridal settings can be built with either a lab-grown or a natural center stone.

We show both side by side without pushing you toward either one. Some customers want the size, some want the natural origin and the finite supply behind it, and both are correct answers. Come compare them in our Troy showroom and decide with the stones in front of you.
