Lab Grown Diamond Jewellery

Yes, lab grown diamond jewellery is typically 50-90% less expensive than their mined counterparts in Hong Kong. The larger the lab grown diamond or the higher the carat weight of the lab grown jewellery the bigger the difference. Lab grown diamonds are a cost-effective option without compromising on quality.

Most importantly, buy from reputable and trustworthy stores that can explain the lab grown diamond to you. All lab grown diamonds over 1ct come with certification from reputable gemological laboratories, such as IGI or GIA, which assess the diamond's quality, cut, color, and clarity. Ask your jeweller about the quality of the lab grown diamonds they use and whether they have a blue or grey tinge which is undesirable.

Yes, Niya K is one of the few jewellers in Hong Kong that provides a complete custom lab grown jewellery experience. From classic styles to something that is more “out there,” share your ideas with us. You will be pleasantly surprised at how competitive and affordable our prices are as well!

Yes, lab grown diamonds are considered ethical as they are created in controlled environments, eliminating concerns about conflict diamonds and unsustainable mining practices. We work with reputed growers and diamond cutters to ensure best business practices.

Lab grown diamond jewellery can be cared for in the same way as mined diamond jewellery. Regular cleaning with mild soap and a soft brush, along with periodic professional cleaning, will keep them looking their best.

Yes, you can have your lab grown diamond appraised by a certified gemologist, just as you would with a mined diamond. But it’s important to note that unlike natural diamonds, lab grown diamonds have no re-sale value and prices have fallen significantly over the past few years as technology improves and the industry achieves economies of scale.

Once you have finalised the details of the design and chosen the lab grown diamond, our typical turnaround time is 3 weeks. For more intricate pieces of lab grown jewellery such as bridal necklaces, we may need a couple of weeks more to do trials and fittings.

For orders from our store items, the delivery time is 2-3 weeks.

Well grown lab grown diamonds look identical to natural diamonds, unlike diamond simulants in the market such as cubic zircon or mossanite. Only advanced machines can detect lab grown diamonds and all certified lab grown diamonds will usually have an inscription on them to say they are lab grown. But just because two things look the same does not mean they are the same. Natural diamonds have a very different heritage and meaning so it really depends on your personal preference. Many of Niya K’s customers choose to buy both natural and lab grown diamonds depending on the purpose and design of the jewellery.
