What a CVD diamond actually is — and how we grow one, start to finish.
It's still a real diamond
A lab grown diamond isn't a substitute — it's the same mineral, grown under a different sky.
Chemical Vapour Deposition (CVD) recreates the exact conditions carbon needs to crystallise into diamond, just without the billion years. Same hardness. Same fire. Same everything, atom for atom.
The Process
Seed to
stone.
01
Seed
A thin slice of diamond, placed inside a reactor chamber.
02
Growth
Carbon-rich gas is heated into plasma. Atoms settle onto the seed, layer by layer, week after week.
03
Rough
What comes out is a real, rough, unpolished diamond.
04
Cut
Shaped by our cutters — faceted for jewellery, or sliced into wafers for industry.
