Synthetic diamond
A synthetic diamond is a man-made stone created through scientific processes that replicate the natural conditions under which diamonds form. Using methods like High Pressure High Temperature (HPHT) or Chemical Vapor Deposition (CVD), engineers produce diamonds with the same chemical composition and physical properties as natural diamonds. These lab-grown diamonds are often used in jewelry and industrial applications because they are generally more affordable, ethically sourced, and can be produced more quickly. Despite being synthetic, they are indistinguishable from natural diamonds to the naked eye and have the same brilliance and durability.
