re-shaping the overall diamond market

Traditional diamond industry has faced challenges around ethical sourcing, environmental impact and traceability

Lab-grown diamonds offer an alternative equally stunning, yet controversy-free

Why lab-grown diamonds?

Transparency & traceability

Get access to a transparent supply

chain from origin to your finger

without murky routes

Responsible craftsmanship

Luxury can thrive without costing

the earth even in the name of

“rarity”

Affordability

Wear affordable eco-elegant

diamonds without compromising on

quality or size

How are they made?

Lab-grown diamonds are formed in a controlled environment that replicates the intense heat and pressure found deep within the Earth — without the environmental disruption of mining.

Instead of using heavy machinery or explosives, these diamonds grow from a tiny carbon seed under carefully monitored conditions. This process preserves natural ecosystems and eliminates the need for invasive extraction.

There are two main growth methods: High Pressure–High Temperature (HPHT) and Chemical Vapor Deposition (CVD) — the latter used by Elaia to create diamonds grown to perfection.

HPHT

In this method, a small diamond seed is placed in carbon and subjected to immense pressure and heat, causing the carbon to form around the seed.


The process happens in cubic press, bars press or belt press. Pressure applied of 5-6 GPa and temperature of 1,300-1,600°C

CVD

A diamond seed is placed in a heated chamber, filled with a gaseous carbon source, hydrogen gas, a substrate, an energy source and a heating element.


This process allows pure carbon to attach to the seed, growing the diamond at moderate temperature (700-1,000°C) and lower pressure (< 1 GPa) versus HPHT


Are lab-grown diamonds real diamonds?

The short answer is YES!

In 2018, the Federal Trade Commission  redefined a diamond as “a mineral consisting essentially of pure carbon crystallized in the isometric system,” removing the word “natural.” This confirms that whether created in a lab or formed underground, a diamond is a diamond.

Lab-grown diamonds share the same physical, chemical, and optical properties as mined ones — they are identical in every way, except for their origin


By choosing a lab-grown diamonds over a mined one, you choose to:

Save 125 gallons of water

Eliminate 65- 160** kg of CO 2 emitted for 1 ct of rough diamond

Avoid 3.6 tons of processed rock for 1 ct of rough diamond

Source conflict-free diamonds

Avoid 8 injuries per 1000 workers in mines

for responsibly mined diamonds

What is a type IIa grown diamond?

What is a type IIa grown diamond?

Diamonds composed of pure carbon, free from nitrogen or boron impurities. This results in remarkable clarity, brilliance, and optical transparency
