[quote=Anonymous]I have a mined diamond but I derive zero pleasure from knowing it's "real." It was purchased from a jeweler who certifies all their diamonds are conflict-free, so I guess there is some value in that, but a lab diamond would be guaranteed to be conflict free. To me the value in a diamond engagement ring is (1) it's pretty, and (2) it was a gift from my husband when we decided to get married. That's it. I would never go for a huge diamond, mined or lab, because it's not my style and I wouldn't wear it very often. But if I was getting engaged today, I'd definitely be looking at lab diamonds. Cheaper, more ethical, and all the same options for size, cut, etc. Why not? It's just a piece of jewelry and it's value comes in its symbolic significance, not how it was formed.[/quote]
