Hey sifus, Im planning to propose to my gf soon. And am looking for a proposal ring, I came across Love & Co lab grown diamond certified by IAG. The price is relatively cheap compared to natural mined diamond. Appreciate your views on the pros and cons of a lab diamond vs natural diamond. If you were to propose, would you buy a lab diamond?

Thanks in advance mates

For ethical and environmental reasons stop buying mined diamonds, just get synthetic cubic zirconia instead cut & clarity > real diamonds

TS should keep in mind that cubic zirconia is not lab diamond. Lab diamond is chemically 100% the same as mined diamond, lab diamond IS diamond. And like pargo said, it is better to avoid mined diamond for ethical reason.
