Synthetic Diamonds

  • Due to its price, diamonds are the gemstones that present the greatest risks of buying a natural diamond but whose quality does not match that indicated.
  • Secondly, some traders are willing to sell treated diamonds and imitation stones which are easily detectable, especially zirconium oxide and moissanite, which are not the same thickness as the diamond, so in this case it is enough to weigh them to discover the deception.
  • Synthetic diamonds are already a certainty, even if the production of these diamonds is still limited on the markets it is increasing more and more.
  • SG Bijouterie does not sell synthetic diamonds under any circumstances because these diamonds have no intrinsic value. Moreover, according to the International Gem Society, which cites a report from the Natural Diamond Council, formerly known as the Diamond Producers Association, the production of a polished carat of synthetic diamond would emit three times more greenhouse gases than its natural equivalent.
