Lab Grown Diamond Oval Engagement Rings

Elongated with rounded corners, an oval diamond is a classic choice for your engagement ring. Whether you prefer a traditional solitaire or a more extravagant halo design, Ada’s concierge team will help you find the perfect lab grown diamond oval for your unique style.

These lab created diamonds mirror natural diamonds in color, clarity, and carat weight. They also come with the added benefit of being conflict free and environmentally friendly.

Color

The lab grown diamond oval is a popular shape among couples looking for a unique engagement ring that embodies their love for each other. Despite their elongated form, these diamonds are a stunning option that exudes the same amount of sparkle as round cuts.

A lab grown diamond is created using advanced technology to mimic the look of a natural diamond. The color of a lab grown diamond can vary significantly, from almost colorless to a yellow or blue hue.

Most lab diamonds are D to F in color, although some can be a little higher (G-J) or lower (I-K). They are graded based on their appearance to the naked eye after magnification.

Some lab diamonds can also have a bluish tint, which can be caused by boron exposure in the growing process. This can add a subtle blue hue to your diamond, and should be noted on the grading report.

This is why it’s important to view HD imagery of a lab-grown diamond before purchasing. It’s also a good idea to check for fluorescence.

If you have a specific color you want, you can work with your Diamond Concierge to select an oval diamond that will compliment the rest of your ring. They will ensure that the center stone is eye clean with minimal bow-tie effect, and help you choose side and accent diamonds that match in color.

Lastly, it’s crucial to choose a reputable lab that can provide you with a grading report. This way, you can make sure that the diamond you’re buying is not a scam.

The resale value of a lab-grown diamond is similar to that of an earth mined diamond. The Rapaport Price List, an internationally recognized pricing system, is used to determine resale values.

Many consumers are opting to purchase synthetic diamonds because they offer a more affordable alternative to natural diamonds. Additionally, they are becoming more popular with younger consumers.

While the lab-grown diamond has been a hot commodity for a while, it’s important to remember that lab-grown diamonds don’t have the same resale value as earth-mined diamonds. This is because they’re often less expensive than real diamonds, and because there’s a limited supply of them. However, they do have a lot of appeal for those who want to reduce their environmental impact.

Clarity

The clarity of a lab grown diamond oval is important, as it can have an impact on the value and appearance of the stone. The diamond’s clarity grade is based on the size, location and number of imperfections within the stone. This clarity grade is also impacted by the shape of the inclusions, as well as their nature and relief.

For example, a dark inclusion may look larger and stand out more than a lighter one. Inclusions that are close to the girdle or the edge of the diamond will have a lower clarity grade than those that are deep inside the stone.

Another consideration for clarity grades is the amount of light return in a diamond’s facets. A low amount of light return can make it difficult to see the inclusions in a stone, even with a jeweler’s loupe.

A high number of light returns can make the inclusions look darker and less prominent. This effect is often seen in pear, marquise and oval diamonds. It is best to choose a diamond with a low light return for the maximum sparkle and brilliance.

Choosing the right color for an oval diamond can be challenging as it can be hard to know how much color will show up in the stone. For this reason, many consumers prefer to go with a colorless diamond with a higher clarity grade.

Colorless diamonds are the most common type of lab grown diamonds, but they can be found in a range of other colors as well. Fancy colored diamonds are rarer and can be more expensive than their colorless counterparts. However, these fancy colored diamonds can look stunning when set in a white gold or platinum setting.

These lab grown diamonds can be a great option for those who are looking for a natural diamond at a fraction of the cost. They can be sourced through various major gem labs, including the GIA and IGI.

In addition to a wide range of color options, lab grown diamonds can also be crafted in a variety of cuts. As with any diamond, the cut quality of a lab grown diamond has a big impact on its overall appearance.

Carat Weight

Lab diamonds are created by the same processes that mined diamonds use, only in a laboratory environment under human oversight. This is why they can be created in a variety of sizes, shapes, carat weights and levels of clarity – just like natural mined diamonds.

The size and shape of the stone is not only an important consideration when it comes to choosing a lab grown diamond for your engagement ring, but it also plays a role in its price. Synthetic prices do not increase dramatically as carat weight increases, unlike with natural diamonds, and the price per carat of lab-grown stones is a much better deal than those of mined diamonds.

Generally, lab-grown diamonds are available in all shapes and sizes as well, but the oval cut is growing in popularity for its classic look and ability to add more length to the overall visual appearance of an engagement ring. In addition, it is often cheaper than the equivalent sized round cut diamond, and you can get it set in any style of setting that you desire.

A lab grown diamond is a man-made gem that has the same fire, scintillation and brilliance of a real diamond. It is cut and crafted into the same shapes and sizes as natural mined diamonds, and it can be accompanied by a grading certificate from an independent gemological laboratory.

For this reason, it is important to ensure that you choose a certified lab grown diamond for your engagement ring. This means that the diamond is certified as being of high quality by an accredited gemological lab, such as the IGI.

Lab-grown diamonds are produced by high pressure/high temperature (HPHT) or chemical vapor deposition (CVD) manufacturing techniques that replicate the process of natural diamond mining in the ground. The result is a polished diamond that is as beautiful as any natural mined diamond, but with less than half the energy and environmental impact.

As a result, synthetic prices are typically 50-70% less than those of naturally mined diamonds. However, it’s still the early days of the market and pricing is not uniform across all manufacturers or producers, so it’s impossible to predict where prices will be in the future.

Setting

The setting of your lab grown diamond engagement ring is one of the most important factors to consider. You have a wide range of options to choose from, including solitaire settings, three-stone oval engagement rings, and halo styles.

If you prefer a minimalist style, you can opt for a simple four-prong setting to highlight the oval lab grown diamond. This style is a timeless choice and will never go out of fashion, so you can wear it for years to come.

However, you can also opt for more ornate settings if you want to make your ring stand out from the rest. This type of setting allows you to add a halo or a cluster of small diamonds around the center oval to make it sparkle even more.

The most important thing to keep in mind when choosing a halo setting is the size of the oval. This will impact the amount of adornment that will surround the center stone, so choose a halo setting with the correct size to balance out the overall halo design.

There are also other things to consider when choosing the setting of your lab grown diamond engagement ring, including the length and width ratio. This will help you find the perfect ring for your unique style and taste.

It is also important to note that there are several different length and width ratios for oval diamonds. These can range from 1.26:1 to 1.7:1 and will have an effect on the look of the diamond.

This is why we always recommend that you consult with your Diamond Concierge to ensure that the length and width of your diamond fits perfectly with your ring design. Your concierge will be able to help you find the right size and shape for your ring and will curate a list of exceptional lab grown ovals to meet your specifications.

Lab grown diamonds are incredibly affordable and beautiful. They are a great choice for couples who want to avoid the high cost of a mined diamond, but still want to have a stunning engagement ring that will last a lifetime. In fact, they are often twice or even three times more affordable than mined diamonds!
