[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]One is real, made by a specific chance occurrence of natural processes happening just right, for millions of years, and the other is fake, created in weeks in a laboratory, perfect each and every time.

They might be chemically identical and indistinguishable - but that doesn’t mean they are the same.

Someone could make a gold band that is absolutely IDENTICAL to your own wedding band that your H gave you _______ years ago. But would you just take that one off put on the new one if a stranger gave it to you today? I’d bet you would not. Why ? It’s the same material. Same size, shape, everything. But you probably place a value on the one your H gave you, anyway, right?

Same thing with diamonds. That’s why natural stones will always be special and lab stones are just pretty fakes.  [/quote]
Once every girl on the metro can afford the indistinguishable lab stone, the mined stones will lose value. Supply. Demand. Very few people share your viewpoint, and it really is flawed, because the mined diamonds are there by the boatload already, the rarity is fake. Lab diamonds will break DeBeers false constraint and that's simply how it is. If you still want a mined diamond, that's your choice. But it's not an investment that is going to appreciate or even hold its value. [/quote]

Gen Y and Gen Z have to cheapen everything I guess.  Music. Films. Art. And now diamonds.

Nothing is special. Just another fast-foodization of life, delivered by Uber Eats. [/quote]
