[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Man made diamonds are diamonds.  High VSS rating, meaning clean, no occlusions.
It is because of the complete lack of occlusions that an expert can tell they are not natural.

Natural stones have natural features, like occlusions, veining, coloration, some kind of blemish in its body. Teeny tiny but they are there.[/quote]

I just have to say it- inclusions, PP, not occlusions. Two totally different words with two totally different meanings.  And it’s VVS, not VSS. [/quote]

True, but overall, they are right. They are diamonds. A trained eye with a loupe can tell lab grown versus a natural stone. It’s all about the cut. I don’t think anybody will be taking such a close look at your stone, that  they can tell it is lab versus mined.

It’s the same with lab grown sapphires, rubies and emeralds. They are the same gem just not mined and without inclusions and veining. Some people want that and some people don’t care.

Omg NO. You’re right that they’re distinguishable under a loop but it has nothing to do with the cut. The inclusions in lab diamonds have characteristics that are distinguishable from natural.

This is completely different than corundum stones (sapphires and rubies) where the lab versions do not have any kind of inclusions. [/quote]

Sorry, I wasn’t clear. The cut of any stone is what makes a difference so you want a good cut on any stone. [/quote]
