We only use synthetic diamonds of the best diamond quality for our jewelry. These are grown in the laboratory. You can find out exactly how this works in our articleLab grown diamondsread. Even though our synthetic diamonds don't grow naturally, they are just as pure, beautiful and unique as their natural counterparts. They are chemically and optically identical to the rocks that grow underground over millions of years. Only: They are bred much faster and are not nearly as harmful to the environment.

Very few people know that a carat describes the weight of the diamond. A diamond carat is 0.20 grams. Depending on the cut of the diamond, a carat can vary in size, but the look can often be deceiving: If a stone has a large cut and is cut less deeply, it may appear more valuable than it actually is. The carat weight does not indicate the size of the stone..

Color, i.e. the diamond color, shows what color a white diamond has, whether it is colorless or has a coloring, for example. The best diamond quality is colorless or in a very fine white and therefore the most valuable. Color is one of the most important factors in determining quality, ranging from D=colorless to Z=distinct tint. Maren Jewelery's white synthetic diamonds are always G=almost colorless..

The cut of the diamond is one of the most important criteria for determining the quality and value of a diamond. This is also the reason why the cut has become more and more important in recent years. However, the cut has nothing to do with the shape of the cut, whether a stone is cut round or square. Rather, it is the quality of the cut, how the facets of the cut stone interact and shine with the light. The better a stone is cut, the better the light can break and the stone can sparkle..

The diamond clarity or clarity describes the degree of purity of a diamond. Diamonds are carbon compounds. Normally, these develop over millions of years under high pressure. Other minerals can also get lost in the stone, these are categorized into three levels: IF=flawless, VS=very small inclusions and SI=small inclusions. The visibility of the inclusions and thus the diamond quality is always evaluated under 10x magnification

Nothing else should be considered when choosing a stone for your engagement ringchoose. After all, the diamond is a symbol of your love and should be beautiful accordingly. We therefore always use the following diamond quality for our laboratory-grown diamonds: The color of our stones is G, i.e. almost colorless. The purity is VS1, which means something like: almost no inclusions and the cut quality is excellent. In our opinion, the overall very high quality of the diamonds used is the most suitable combination for jewelry. An even higher quality is more expensive, but cannot be seen as better with the naked eye, i.e. more sparkling, whiter or more flawlessen

An engagement is a very emotional and personal moment of love, which the engagement ring symbolically captures for eternity. If an engagement ring with precious stones is to be chosen, in addition to the quality of the diamond, it is essential to evaluate whether theEngagement ring diamondsfairly traded, certified and traceable, or artificially bred in a lab. From a size of 0.5 carats, the diamond should come with an official quality certificate, as is the case with the synthetic diamonds at Maren Jewellery. In addition, the diamond quality should be evaluated using the 4 Cs in order to determine the quality of the stones and thus of the entire piece of jewellery.
