Natural Diamonds v.s. Man Made Diamonds?

What is the word used for a man made diamond? I’m not talking about Cubic Zirconiums (CZ’s), and i’m not too sure what Moissanite is.

I am looking for a cheaper alternative for a wedding ring. I want a real diamond. Not a CZ or anything fake. But i have heard that there are man made diamonds that are real… meaning they have the same structure and are made of the same thing as natural diamonds…. and they’re supposidly cheaper.

Also what is the difference between the man made Diamonds and natural Diamonds? Quality?

And what should i look out for when buying a real man made diamond, making sure that i get exactly that and not a CZ or sapphire or something like that?

Also, with a man made diamond does it show that it is real when the jewlers use those little hand held diamond detector things? Sorry, I’m not sure what they are called. But I’m sure someone knows what I’m talking about. :-D [ I think that they determine whether or not the stone conducts heat when the tip of the hand held doo-dad is applied , and if it shows that the stone does conduct heat then it is determined to be a diamond. Correct me if I'm wrong.]

I would really appreciate it if someone could answer all of my questions, i have a lot of them and i just wanna do some research before i go out and buy a man made diamond only to find out its not what i want. Thank you so much!

lab created diamonds
I smile because of them ? asked:


Is it because it’s fake. It says in the description that it’s lab created diamonds. What the heck does that mean? Is it real gold and diamonds?

Are Absolute Diamonds man-made diamonds or totally fake?

Nancy asked:


By totally fake, I mean cubic zirconia. There is a man-made growing process that will produce real diamonds vs diamonds that are made from time, heat, pressure and coal. I’m trying to find out if an Absolute ™ diamond is a cz or if it’s made/grown through the man-made process.
