No. Russian Brilliants is a laboratory-grown stone that is classified as a diamond simulant and developed in Russia and used in their satellite optics program. Being hand-cut it takes on many of the visual properties of a natural diamond. A one carat of Russian Brilliants with its brilliance and fire is equivalent to the world’s finest D flawless diamond valued at $16,000.
