After extensive research for past two years in lab, New Age Diamonds has achieved a great breakthrough.

Today, the company offers lab-cultured gem quality diamonds which is totally identical to natural ones.

It is now possible through pure HPHT (high pressure high temperature) method to produce conflict free diamonds.

HPHT conditions can be in excess of 2000°C and 60,000 atmospheres. HPHT Diamonds are created by simulating the actual geological conditions in the lab.

A small nucleus, that provides the core of the diamond, is placed on a surface of carbon and extreme pressures and temperatures are applied. The carbon then forms into a diamond crystal.

Each diamond is cultured individually and has its unique characteristics.

Thus, New Age Diamonds has turned myth to reality.

A stone has specific properties that makes it unique. The company does not produce clones of industrial diamonds.

Natural diamonds can be colorless, yellow or brown, fancy colors like green, blue, pink, red are very rare. Synthetic diamonds of all these colors have been made, as well as greenish-yellow, blue and colorless varieties. At the moment most synthetic diamonds are yellow or brownish-yellow.

Currently New Age offers green and red colored diamonds too. Lab-created diamonds share the identical optical, chemical, and physical properties of natural diamonds. Detection of synthetic diamond is very difficult. Testing procedures involve evaluation of magnetic properties, fluorescence patterns and the identification of diagnostic inclusions

New Age Diamonds is a new trademark having consolidated under this brand a Russian former space lab where originally was developed and applied HPHT method for producing lab-created gem-quality diamonds - as well as the diamonds for technical needs in the field of optic- and microelectronics - and all representative branches.
