Why Lab-Grown?
Lab-grown diamonds are real diamonds — same chemical composition, same hardness (10 on the Mohs scale), same brilliance. The only difference is where they come from. Grown in a controlled environment rather than mined from the earth, they are conflict-free and significantly more affordable, which means you can get a larger, higher-quality stone for the same budget. It’s not a compromise — it’s a smarter choice.
Ring Size Guide
Not sure of your size? Wrap a thin strip of paper around the base of your finger, mark where it overlaps, and measure in millimeters — then compare with our ring size guide. For the most accurate fit, measure in the evening when fingers are slightly larger. Need a size not listed? Contact us — we offer custom sizing on select styles.
Care & Wear
Diamonds are the hardest natural material on earth, making this set ideal for everyday wear. Clean periodically with warm water, mild soap, and a soft brush to keep the pavé diamonds sparkling. Store separately from other jewelry to avoid scratching, and bring it in for a professional check once a year to ensure all prongs and pavé stones are secure.

Lab Grown vs. Natural Diamonds
Lab grown diamonds are graded by the same gemological standards as natural diamonds — cut, color, clarity, and carat weight. They are not simulants (like cubic zirconia or moissanite). They are real diamonds, grown above ground using advanced technology that replicates the natural diamond-growing process. The result is a stone that is indistinguishable from a mined diamond, even to a trained gemologist.

The Asscher Cut
The Asscher cut is one of the most distinctive and coveted diamond shapes in fine jewelry — a square step-cut with deeply cropped corners and a unique octagonal silhouette that creates a mesmerizing, concentric square pattern when viewed from above. Often called the “hall of mirrors” effect, the Asscher cut’s open, geometric facets draw the eye deep into the stone with a depth and clarity that brilliant cuts simply cannot replicate. It is the cut of Art Deco glamour, vintage sophistication, and modern architectural elegance — all at once.
Lab-Grown Diamonds: Brilliant, Ethical, Sustainable
Lab-grown diamonds are chemically, physically, and optically identical to mined diamonds — the same hardness, the same brilliance, the same fire. The difference is in how they’re created: grown in controlled environments using cutting-edge technology that replicates the natural diamond-forming process, without the environmental impact of mining. Ethically sourced and sustainably created, lab-grown diamonds offer exceptional clarity and fire without compromise — perfect for those who value beauty, responsibility, and modern luxury.
The Eternity Setting
An eternity band features stones that go all the way around the band — no beginning, no end — symbolizing infinite love and commitment. The shared prong setting used in this band holds each Asscher diamond securely while maximizing the amount of light that enters each stone, creating a continuous ribbon of brilliance that glows from every angle.
How to Wear It
- As a wedding band: A breathtaking, non-traditional choice that elevates any bridal set
- As an anniversary ring: The eternity setting and lab-grown diamonds make this a meaningful milestone gift
