Our Star Carat lab grown diamonds are made through closely replicating the heat and pressure conditions found on earth using the Chemical Vapour Deposition process.\
\
These processes begin with a diamond seed that is placed in a sealed chamber with hydrocarbon gas being injected into the reactor. The chamber is then heated to approximately 800 degrees Celcius, causing gases to ionise into plasma. As high power microwaves break the molecular bonds in the gases, pure carbon will precipitate onto the diamond plates before gradually crystalizing. Thus, enabling new carbon crystals to form layer by layer around the diamond seed until the ideal carat weight is attained.
