​​How are lab grown Diamonds made?

Artificial diamonds, also known as laboratory-grown diamonds or synthetic diamonds, are diamonds that are created in a controlled laboratory environment rather than being formed naturally in the Earth's crust. These diamonds have the same chemical composition, crystal structure, and physical properties as natural diamonds, but they are produced through advanced technological processes.

The process of creating artificial diamonds involves replicating the conditions under which natural diamonds are formed, such as high pressure and temperature. Two main methods are commonly used: the High-Pressure High-Temperature (HPHT) method and the Chemical Vapor Deposition (CVD) method.

In the HPHT method, a small diamond seed is placed in a press that applies immense pressure and temperature, similar to the conditions found deep within the Earth. This process allows the carbon atoms in the seed to rearrange and form a larger diamond crystal.
