At Wanderlust Life, we’re excited to use lab-created diamonds and opals. What’s behind our decision to incorporate these gems into our work? Here are five facts that led us to the lab-created route.
1. LAB-CREATED GEMS LOOK REAL... BECAUSE THEY ARE REAL.
Diamonds, opals and other gems produced in a lab are every bit as real as those that have been spontaneously created beneath the Earth’s surface. Optically, natural and lab-created gems are identical.
2. LAB-CREATED GEMS ARE GENUINE GEMS.
Lab-created gemstones have the exact same chemical compositions, crystal structures and physical properties of their natural counterparts.

3. LAB-CREATED GEMS ARE ECO-FRIENDLY.
Mining gems using traditional methods disturbs the Earth’s surface through explosives and machinery, uses water and creates waste. Producing gemstones sustainably in a lab avoids these detrimental effects on the environment.
4. LAB-CREATED GEMS ARE AN ETHICAL OPTION.
Shifting soil and rock to find natural gemstones is very hard work that comes with a certain amount of danger. By growing gemstones in the controlled environment of a laboratory, any cost to human health is vastly reduced.
5. THERE ARE SEVERAL ALTERNATIVE NAMES FOR LAB-CREATED GEMS.
A lab-created gemstone is one that’s been made in a laboratory and has the same chemical composition as its natural counterpart. You might also see them referred to as “synthetic”, “man-made”, “lab-grown”, “cultured” or “engineered” gems.
