Grading Diamonds by the 4Cs

The 4Cs (color, cut, clarity, carat) serve as a way for us to ensure diamond quality and uphold the standards set by the Gemological Institute of America. 

Cut

A diamond’s cut refers to different facets that affect the stone including its brilliance, fire, and scintillation, as well as its durability, polish, symmetry, and weight ratio. Kendra Scott lab grown diamonds come in a variety of cuts.

Clarity

A diamond’s clarity is dependent upon the existence of unique markers inside (inclusions) or externally (blemishes) to the stone and is graded on a scale. All Kendra Scott lab grown diamonds are at or above VS+ clarity. 

Color

Diamond color is graded on a scale, from D to Z, and represents the presence of color in the stone from colorless to light coloration. All Kendra Scott lab grown diamonds are H or higher on the color scale.

Carat

Carat refers to a stone’s overall weight and is a universal standard of measurements for diamonds. By offering different carat sizes for lab grown diamonds, we ensure options for every style.

Lab Grown Diamonds: Frequently Asked Questions

Why should I choose a lab grown diamond?

The choice is totally yours! But lab grown diamonds offer more stone for less spend with the same quality and durability of a traditional diamond.

Are lab grown diamonds real diamonds?

Lab grown diamonds are the real deal and physically identical to traditional mined diamonds. The only difference between a lab grown diamond and traditional mined diamond is how they are created.

What's the difference between lab grown diamonds and mined diamonds?

The singular difference is how they are created. Traditional diamonds are forged naturally over time and have to be mined and extracted before making their way into jewelry. Lab grown diamonds don't require any of that. Their growing process takes place in a laboratory, which allows greater control over the clarity and color of the stone—and more stone for less spend. 

Are there any benefits to lab grown diamonds?

Lab grown diamonds do not rely on the human and environmental impact of diamond mining which helps pass on cost savings to consumers. Lab grown diamonds also allow for larger carats at lower costs than traditional fine jewelry styles.

Are lab grown diamonds designed to last as long as mined diamonds?

There is no physical or chemical difference between lab grown diamonds and mined diamonds.

Are lab grown diamonds certified like mined diamonds?

Our lab grown diamond styles with each diamond amounting to .50 carats and above are certified through the International Gemological Institute (IGI). IGI screens every diamond using state-of-the-art technologies to determine laboratory-grown diamond quality under strictly controlled conditions.

How do I care for lab grown diamonds?

The same way you would any fine jewelry! Wash your Kendra Scott fine jewelry with gentle soap, rinse well and dry completely with a soft cloth. Always remove your jewelry before swimming and exercising. We don't recommend using jewelry dips or polishes as they may contain harsh abrasives that could damage either the stone or metal. And avoid agents such as perfume, lotion, makeup, hair and cleaning products to maintain your jewelry's shine for a lifetime.

Are lab grown diamonds warranted?

All our lab grown diamond styles are protected for up to one year under our fine jewelry repair policy and covers normal wear repairs. Any repairs performed after one year will be at an additional cost. Please contact our Customer Care team to learn more!
