What is CVD?

CVD stands for Chemical Vapor Deposition. It's an advanced lab technique that grows diamonds. The process uses carbon-rich gases to build diamonds layer by layer. This controlled method creates diamonds that are exceptionally pure and brilliant. They are also conflict-free diamonds.

A Brief History Of CVD Diamonds
- 1950s–1970s: Early experiments in chemical vapor deposition
- 1980s–1990s: Industrial diamonds for electronics and cutting tools
- 2000s: Gem-quality CVD diamonds certified by IGI
- 2010s–Present: Widely used for fine jewelry, sustainable and ethical
CVD VS HPHT, Why CVD Stands Out
Currently, lab grown diamonds are primarily produced using two processes: chemical vapor deposition (CVD) and high-pressure, high-temperature (HPHT). While both CVD and HPHT processes can produce genuine diamonds, CVD offers significant advantages in clarity, color, value, and sustainability.
Understanding the differences between these processes will help you choose the diamond that best meets your needs.
CVD diamonds stand out for their high clarity, near-colorless beauty, large carats, and sustainable environmental credentials. Whether you prioritize quality, carat size, or environmental sustainability, CVD diamonds are your best choice.

FAQs--CVD Diamonds
Q: Are CVD diamonds real diamonds?
Yes. CVD diamonds are chemically, physically, and optically identical to natural diamonds.
Q: How are CVD diamonds different from HPHT diamonds?
CVD diamonds grow layer by layer at lower temperatures, resulting in purer crystals, higher clarity, and higher production capacity, allowing for the production of multiple diamonds at a time. HPHT diamonds simulate high-pressure natural conditions and have limited production capacity.
Q: Are CVD diamonds ethical and conflict-free?
Absolutely. Every CVD diamond is conflict-free, fully traceable, and IGI certified.
Q: How do CVD diamonds compare in value to natural diamonds?
CVD diamonds offer high quality at more transparent and affordable pricing.
Q: Can I make a memorial diamond from CVD diamonds?
Yes. Our commemorative diamonds are also grown using CVD technology, ensuring that love and memories never fade.
Q: What colors are available in CVD diamonds?
CVD diamonds come in a wide range of colors, from D (colorless) to fancy colors, making them ideal for your diverse customization needs.
Q: How durable are CVD diamonds?
They have the same hardness as natural diamonds (10 on Mohs scale), perfect for daily wear.
