Real Pink Diamonds, Real Yellow diamonds - grown by man rather than mined!

We are the web's premier source for stunning, lab-grown pink, blue and yellow diamonds. Real diamond, cut to exacting specifications, but grown in a laboratory rather than mined.

All our inventory is *real* diamond; All are accompanied by an independent gemological grading report as your assurance of quality.

If you are unfamiliar with what a genuine cultured, or lab-grown, diamond is, please visit here for more info.

To answer the most common question: All Takara's will test positive on any form of diamond tester...because Takaras are *real* diamond (same molecular composition as mined diamonds). The difference is Takaras are grown in a laboratory and due to the cost savings by not having to mine hundreds of tons of rock, Takaras can be purchased at a fraction of the price of their mined counterparts. Our lab-grown Yellow Diamonds often sell for 1/7th the price of equivalent mined yellow diamonds and our lab-grown pink diamonds are offered for as little as 1/25th the price of their mined pink diamond equivalent.

Speaking of mined counterparts, here are a few quotes related to the value of natural pink and blue diamonds as compared to whites:

“A fine pink or blue diamond of unquestionable color, meaning, you see the pink or blue, can cost 10 to 50 times more than a white diamond of the same size”
LA Times

"...pink diamonds are known to command prices exceeding $400,000 per carat..."
National Jeweler Network

"To put the true rarity of these special 'pink' diamonds into perspective, from every million carats of rough [white] diamonds produced at the mine, a mere one carat [of pinks] is suitable for sale..."
From Rio Tinto website [Rio Tinto owns the Argyle mines, the source of 90% of the worlds pink mined diamonds].

In our experience, the more you know about the rarity and beauty of colored natural diamonds, the more you can appreciate the beauty and value that our Takara lab-grown diamonds can offer. Our pink diamonds are often available for selling prices equivalent to 5% of the price you would pay to buy the equivalent pink if it was mined instead of grown in the lab.

Fancy Diamond

"At certain times of the day the sky is colored. At sunrise you have what colors? Yellow, orange, and red. Suppose your diamonds take shape at these moments. They are reflecting the yellow or the red, and it becomes a part of them. Or if it is not sunrise or sunset, but the middle part of the day when the sky is blue, they reflect the blue. Just at the moment they turn hard they take on the color of the sky. if they are formed at night when there is no color for them they become pure and colorless, what we call white.
That is how it happens, I am sure."
