What is a Takara
Cultured Diamond exactly?
Takara
Cultured Diamonds
are:
-
Pure and genuine
diamond:
99.99% carbon in isometric (cubic) form, and come with an EGL fancy
diamond grading report
-
Grown in a
laboratory, not mined.
It is very comparable to buying a cultured pearl versus a natural pearl
- they are both real pearls, only man initiates the growth for a
cultured pearl rather than having nature initiate it.
-
Not Moissanite or CZ:
Moissanite does not contain any diamond crystal; CZ has no carbon, or
any other type of simulant or falsely labeled imitation.
The
major advantages of Takara Cultured Diamonds:
-
Stunning, intense/vivid coloration: Most Takara's are graded by
EGL as 'vivid' coloration, which is among the most valuable (and rare)
color grade for fancy color diamonds.
-
Less
brittle:
Their crystal structure is nearly
perfect vs. the deformations usually present in natural diamond.
Nitrogen is evenly dispersed throughout the lab-grown diamonds vs. being
in clumps in natural diamonds (called N3-centers).
-
Precise
and perfect cut: Hand-Cut by Master Diamond cutters to premium
cutting specifications, all done in the USA
-
More
affordable: Prices are 50 - 80%+ cheaper than their natural
diamond equivalents (90% cheaper for blues)
-
Environmentally friendly (no mining)
