Is a lab-grown diamond considered a real diamond?

Is a lab-grown diamond a real diamond?
A lab-grown diamond is a diamond created in a laboratory and even though it is made by man, it is very much a real diamond. A lab-grown, also called a synthetic diamond, has exactly the same composition both technically and visually as a natural diamond. Not even an expert can see the difference by just looking at the diamond with the naked eye. Only a specific instrument can determine the difference.

Colored lab-grown diamonds
Are you considering buying a colored diamond? Then it is a good idea to consider a colored lab-grown diamond since it has a lower price than colored natural diamonds. A colored natural diamond with colors such as blue yellow, pink or green is very unique as it requires an element to enter the diamond during the creation process deep into the earth. That an element should be placed in the diamond during the creation of a natural diamond is incredibly unusual, which means that the price of a colored natural diamond is incredibly unusual, which means that the price for a colored natural diamond is high. When you create a diamond in a laboratory, you have completely different possibilities for placing the element together with the carbon, which leads to a lower price.
