Excellent. Short and to the point. Liked.
Very good explanation! Thank you!! Easy to understand.
I'm not sure why, but the way you say "tests" is incredibly endearing 😛
anyone watch that 5m long ad about the gold markups thinking it was this video and find it more interesting
He has a point. the more popular lab grown diamond gets, the more the natural diamond will appreciate. Imagine in 100 years time where lab grown diamond is all you can get (look at the ads and media push for lab grown diamond, its only a matter of time), how much would a natural diamond that would only of been possible era ago be worth? Morality aside, this is the same with ivory.
Thbaks for your video.. Buying diamonds with GIA certificate is an assurance you're buying a mined diamond or they issue GIA certificate for Lab grown diamond too ? Thank you in advance
For lab-grown IGI certification is more common
GIA also certifies lab grown diamonds.
where do you get the machine that tells the difference
That's right, I heard a gemologist say about the same thing. I would definitely buy a lab grown over a natural. The natural stores like to over-price, but once you go to sell the natural diamond you do not get back what you bought it for. The only natural diamonds I know of that demands a high cost is something that is really old and has some kind of history tied to it.
hello friend good night. a question. a diamond in the rough. in density could. weigh more if this diamond is in a matrix where it was formed.
Diamonds are made in upper layer of earths mantle. A semi magma state.1000's deg⁰ extreme pressures. Theres no matrix, host rock, like opal or emerald. Youre confusing 2 completely diff formations.
sir what brand your diamond tester? my i ask? i need to buy same to your tester for my rough diamonds.. And gemstones thank you sir
"Presidium" is widely used. Nothing beats the experience of trained gemologist.
ok sir
What do you wash you face with fam????????????????
How do you know if I were to sell you a lab grown vs natural
Lab grown diamond seller here 🙋🏻♂️. All lab grown diamonds should have an inscription on the girdle indicating that it’s lab grown. Diamonds under a certain weight however my not have the inscription. Always but from a reputable retailer.
Main way is hopefully the jewelry store your shopping with is a honest one because there are great honest jewelry stores out there but not many. I can't imagine how many music artist etc think there diamonds are real but the cheaper lab made diamonds and don't even know it so that's why I don't buy diamonds and never will there's to much corruption involved o only buy gold silver and platinum for profits especially gold because it's been on a amazing price raise
do you have a portable test for gold, silver or platinum that distinguishes it from alloyed or plated metal?
So how can they tell which is natural if you claim they're indistinguishable?
Lab grown diamond seller here 🙋🏻♂️. There are testers that can detect the difference between a mined and lab grown diamond. They cost a few thousand dollars and more and more jewelers are starting to carry them.
lab grown diamonds are extremely clean and basically dont have any impruities, naturak diamonds have way more impurities
as far as i know theres also a small engravement that says lab grown
Larger the lab diamond, the less it costs??
All lab grown diamonds are D E F color with flawless to VVS clarity? if a diamond is K color, it is most likely to be a natural diamond, right?
If someone buys a diamond with the intent to sell it later, they need to take some investment classes lol! That should never be the intent when buying a diamond.
Why villains in movies, get paid with diamonds??? Why not gold or bitcoins???
Bitcoin is too fringe and volatile, gold is too heavy. Diamond has a high value/weight.
When you find he is the big muscular guy from the UA-cam channel 'Andrew Kwong' 😶😈
1:49- we’ll that’s with the assumption that people would still value mined diamonds. I don’t think they will continue to be valued by future generations. I think lab Diamond will hold their value because future generations values and consumption habits will change. My evidence to support this comes from the massive consumer support for lab diamonds
It comes down to the ability for the marketers to instill a sense of rarity and preciousness in their products; people by their nature like to feel elevated above others, and being able to lay claim to owning and possessing something that others can't is what generates the value that isn't inherent in any of the physical attributes. It must be something coveted by the majority for it to have any value; if it's readily available to all, the prices will decrease as it becomes too common for people to achieve that feeling of elevation they want.
Lab grown diamonds are still real diamonds in a way.
I love how he just skims over whether or not you can tell the difference. He just says the reasons why they are similar. This means to me is that you can't tell the difference and he's just trying to make natural diamonds seem like a more valuable choice.
Visually you can’t tell the difference. If the lab grown diamond isn’t inscribed, it’ll need to be put under a cvd/hpht tester
What he forgot to mention is that a Natural diamond (2ct) is $20k and will loose 20-30% of its value the moment you pay for it, so that's a $4-6k loss, instantly, plus, you will loose over 30% of it's worth trying to pawn it, so another $6k gone when you try to sell it, for a lab grown, you would actually pay $2-5k for the same stone, so if it lost 90% of its value, you would still loose less money than the natural counterpart. So even as an investment, Natural Diamonds will loose you more money in any given escenario
Hi Andrew I believe you’re miss informed. So when I ask you for a real diamond and you sell me a laboratory grown diamond you now have a LAWSUIT on your hands. This is because although both are made from carbon a natural diamond has monetary value to the industry and lab diamonds are basically worthless. Even worse as technology advances the price and value of lab diamonds is constantly dropping. My complaint about lab diamonds is the price should reflect it’s true value, Instead of confusing costumers by saying it’s the same as a Real natural diamond.
This guy is just trying to sell lab grown diamonds to millenials who cannot afford natural formed diamonds.
What do you mean natural formed diamonds? Diamonds are cut to their form
@@chickennuggetz4286 Typo on my end, I meant to say that a lab is essentially a real diamond similar to a natural cut diamond. Both are physically, optically, and chemically the same.
@@KaleHello diamonds are extremely overpriced
@@porsevalex Now that lab growns are a bit more known, hoping to see De Beers monopoly capsize
@@KaleHello DeBeers initially called lab diamonds fake. The the FTC ruled that that indeed are real diamonds. So DeBeers is now selling lab grown diamonds under the Light Box brand and pricing them low to drive down the price and grow a wider gap between mined and lab diamonds
