But there is also a huge pickup for stones of 5 carats and up. This indicates that lab-grown diamonds are developing into a full-fledged jewellery category with countless design possibilities.” Attesting to Rockrush’s capabilities is the 14.60-carat Freedom of India, a VS2 lab-grown diamond in F colour – one of the largest ever produced by chemical vapor deposition (CVD).
