[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have a lab grown diamond for my engagement ring. That’s what I wanted because I wanted mine made by lab techs making $20/hr with health insurance rather than people with no other options making $2/week in dangerous conditions. Probably neither scenarios are exactly what’s going on but that’s what I was thinking. [/quote]

This is right on. We should buy fake diamonds because it's better for the environment and all the human beings involved in both processes. Just don't say we should call them real diamonds for those reasons.[/quote]

They are real diamonds. [/quote]

No, they're not. But I'm not going to continue explaining that.

I wonder if the people insisting that fake, lab-made diamonds are real have some kind of investment in the business? Cuz they're not "real" to anyone with any common sense. They used to sell them on TV for like $30, claiming they "looked just like the real thing". Now that they've decided to call them "real" instead of "real-looking" they think they can charge way more for them.

They're not real.[/quote]
Then don’t keep explaining yourself because you’re wrong and no one cares. A lab grown diamond is chemically and atomically the same as a “real” (you mean natural, honey) diamond. You seem very sensitive about the fact that more people will be able to afford big diamonds.

Lab grown diamonds have never been sold on TV. Cubic zirconium and a lab grown diamond are two different things.

If OP is well-kempt and nicely dressed in an understated way, no one - not even a jeweler - will be able to tell it’s fake (though even if she looked like a real housewife your claim “you can tell a diamond is fake by the person wearing it” is laughable). [/quote]
