The Rise of Lab-Grown Diamonds in the Jewelry Industry
There I was, almost a decade ago, a wide-eyed enthusiast stepping into the world of gemstones. Little did I know I was about to become part of a revolution. This wasn’t any ordinary revolution, mind you. It was one brought forth by sparkling, dazzling lab diamonds.
