Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

LabGems provides full in-house 4Cs grading plus high-resolution imagery for every non-certified asscher lab-grown diamond. Trade buyers should focus on clarity (VS2 and above), symmetry of the windmill pattern, and corner condition. Face-up imagery under diffuse lighting is the most reliable evaluation method for step-cut asscher stones where inclusions show readily.

Non-certified asscher lab-grown diamonds at LabGems run approximately 20% below certified equivalents at the same 4Cs specification. The difference is documentation, not quality: stones come from the same Antwerp CVD and HPHT cutting partners as the certified asscher inventory, graded in-house against the same 4Cs framework. The saving reflects skipped IGI report costs.
