Custom Lab-grown Diamond Engagement Rings
A considered choice for modern love stories
Each ring designed with intention. Each diamond selected with care.
Why choose a Lab-Grown Diamond Engagement Ring?
Choosing an engagement ring is deeply personal. It marks a beginning, a promise, and a future you’re stepping into together.
Danielle designs bespoke laboratory grown diamond engagement rings in Johannesburg, South Africa. Each ring is crafted with a certified lab grown diamond that offers exceptional brilliance, ethical sourcing, and remarkable value.
Why Choose Lab-Grown?
A laboratory grown diamond is a real diamond.
It has the same chemical composition, the same hardness, and the same fire and brilliance as a natural mined diamond. The difference lies only in its origin.
Exceptional Beauty. Exceptional Value.
Why Lab-Grown Diamonds Offer Exceptional Value
One of the most practical advantages of laboratory grown diamonds is their accessibility in price.
Because they are created rather than mined, lab grown diamond engagement rings typically cost 30 to 40% less than comparable natural diamond rings.
This means you choose a diamond that is:
- IGI / GIA certified
- Graded according to the same international standards
- A larger carat size with a more accessible option in price
- Higher colour or clarity grading
- A more intricate bespoke design
- Chemically identical to mined diamonds
- Durable enough to last a lifetime
For many couples in South Africa, laboratory grown diamond engagement rings offer the opportunity to choose a larger carat size, a higher colour or clarity grading, or a more intricate bespoke design, without compromising on quality. It is not about spending less. It is about choosing wisely.
