Why are the terms “Cultured” and “Laboratory-Grown” used?
Gemesis wants to be absolutely certain that it distinguishes diamonds grown by man from those grown in nature. “Cultured” is a term that has been used for many years to describe pearls that are engineered by man. That is, where man has found a way to recreate nature’s process, so Gemesis uses “Cultured” and “Laboratory-Grown” to describe accurately the origin of these diamonds. The term “synthetic” is sometimes used to describe diamonds grown by man. However, it is often incorrectly interpreted as meaning “fake” and, thus, is misleading. Even worse, the term “synthetic” may be used by some to describe stones that aren’t actually diamond. However, both “Cultured” and “Laboratory-Grown” fairly and clearly describe this unique jewelry product.
