This is by far one of the prettiest lab grown emeralds we’ve seen! This lab grown – or synthetic – emerald has the color of a fine natural Colombian emerald. We’re used to seeing lab grown emeralds with the darker, more forest green color similar to the African emeralds. This one not only has the bright, light grass green color of a fine Colombian variety but even has inclusions making it that much more interesting. See for yourself.

Lab created diamonds, whether Chatham created diamonds, Gemesis lab grown diamonds or any other gemstone for that matter, are the same actual material as their natural counter parts.

The only difference is the crystal is grown in a lab rather than in nature. The term for this is synthetic, meaning it’s the same material chemically, not to be confused with imitation. An imitation gemstone can be made of any material that ‘looks’ like the original. Imitations include cubic zirconia, glass, crystal and other inexpensive materials.
