Agape Diamonds Education
At Agape Diamonds, we make diamond shopping simple by offering two premium options—IGI-certified lab-grown diamonds and our signature diamond alternative, The Agape Simulated Diamond™. Both are selected for exceptional beauty and consistency, so you can shop with total confidence.
LAB-GROWN DIAMONDS (IGI CERTIFIED)
Our lab-grown diamonds are real diamonds with the same crystal structure, brilliance, and durability as mined diamonds—created in a controlled environment and held to uncompromising standards. Every Agape lab-grown diamond is:
- VVS+ clarity
- F+ color
- Ideal symmetry & polish
- IGI certified
- Laser-inscribed for verification and traceability
This means you get a stunning, high-grade diamond with documentation and identification you can trust—often at a better value than a comparable mined diamond.
THE AGAPE SIMULATED DIAMOND™ (DIAMOND ALTERNATIVE)
For customers who want a premium diamond look at a different price point, we offer The Agape Simulated Diamond™—a high-end simulated diamond alternative crafted to deliver exceptional brilliance and durability.
- Matched to our lab-grown standards: VVS+ clarity and F+ color
- Laser-inscribed
- Comes with Agape Diamonds Certification
- Approximately 9.5 on the Mohs hardness scale
Because many standard consumer diamond testers rely primarily on thermal conductivity, The Agape Simulated Diamond™ may register as “diamond” on some thermal-based testers. For clarity, it is not a natural diamond and not a lab-grown diamond, and advanced gemological testing can distinguish it.
WE’RE HERE TO HELP
Whether you’re choosing a lab-grown diamond or The Agape Simulated Diamond™, our team is here to guide you through the differences and help you choose the best option for your style, budget, and long-term goals—without pressure.
The Raw Truth
It is almost impossible for the naked eye to distinguish the Agape Simulated Diamond from an earth-mined natural diamond; and because they resemble the same optical characteristics, radiance, sparkle and beauty of natural diamonds - even jewelers have a hard time telling the difference. Perfect in every way, Agape Simulated Diamonds are not created from carbon and therefore don't have any imperfections or inclusions.
With Agape Diamonds' Lifetime Warranty, if at any time your jewelry needs to be repaired or exchanged due to a manufacturing defect, we will repair or exchange the item free of charge. We offer exceptional customer service during and after your purchase.
The 4 C’s Of Diamonds
The 4 C’s Of Diamonds
Cut
The cut is one of the most crucial aspects of any diamond. The fluorescence, fire and sparkle that refracts from within the stone can only be achieve by the faceting and polishing of the stone.
Clarity
Clarity refers to how clean or clear the diamond is. In the world of diamonds, how perfect the clarity of the stone is, makes a big difference in its value and cost.
Color
Colorless diamonds do not have any hues and they are also known as “white diamonds”. Because Color is highly valued, the less color a diamond has, the more valuable it is.
Carat
Carat is the measure of how much a diamond weighs. Carat is also related to size but depending on the shape of the stone and how well is cut, two diamonds with the same carat weight can be different sizes.
What Is an Agape Simulated Diamond™?
A Simulated Diamond is a man-made single crystal, which can be manufactured with different materials and designed to simulate the appearance, but not duplicate the characteristic properties of an earth-mined natural diamond.
The Agape Simulated Diamond™ vs. Natural Diamonds
Not all Simulated Diamonds achieve the look and feel of a natural diamond. Not only your stone has to look like a diamond, but it must also resemble the qualities of an earth-mined diamond.
The Agape Simulated Diamond™ vs. CZ's and Moissanite
Our Simulated Diamonds are different from inexpensive CZ and Moissanite in several ways. These differences result in a superior diamond simulant that better resembles the characteristics and qualities of a natural diamond.
