The shift in figures. The Knot's Real Weddings Study found that 61% of US couples chose a lab-grown diamond for their engagement ring, up from 52% in 2024 and 12% in 2019. The same study reported that 40% of couples said it was specifically important that the stone be lab-grown. idexonline

What it means for your budget. Average spend in 2025 was $4,300 for lab-grown rings versus $7,000 for natural. Buyers also tend to get more carat. Lab-grown buyers averaged a 2.0-carat centre stone, and oval was the most likely shape. These are US figures. Malaysian pricing differs, so treat them as a trend indicator, not a local quote. idexonline

Is it a real diamond? Yes. Lab-grown diamonds are crystallised carbon, grown with HPHT or CVD methods, and they share the hardness of mined stones. The difference is origin, and a reputable jeweller states it plainly.
On sustainability, be precise. Lab-grown stones involve no mining, but the footprint depends on the energy used. China and India, two of the largest producers, rely on coal-fired power, so ask a jeweller about its sourcing rather than assuming "lab-grown" means "green." Fortune

Checklist before you buy
- Ask for an independent laboratory report (IGI or GIA) and check that the inscription matches.
- Compare cut quality, not just carat. Cut drives sparkle.
- Choose a setting for your lifestyle: solitaire for simplicity, halo for added presence, hidden pavé for subtle detail.
- Check resizing and aftercare terms.
If you'd like to compare settings or design something bespoke, BEON Diamond's engagement ring collections and Education Hub are good places to start.
