Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

The 0.50ct minimum for retail-grade heart cuts is set by optical geometry, not certification. Below approximately 0.50ct the cleft between the two lobes loses visual definition at normal viewing distance. LabGems holds non-certified heart lab-grown diamonds only above this threshold, from approximately 0.50ct through 3.00ct, so trade buyers receive shapes that read clearly as hearts.

Visual evaluation through high-resolution face-up imagery is essential and identical to the workflow the certified heart inventory requires anyway. For each non-certified heart lab-grown diamond, confirm both lobes match in width and curve, the cleft sits centrally, and the point aligns along the longitudinal axis. LabGems provides additional imagery on request.

Non-certified heart lab-grown diamonds at LabGems run approximately 20% lower per stone than certified equivalents at equal specifications. The saving reflects removed IGI grading overhead, not quality: cuts come from the same Antwerp partners as the certified heart inventory and are graded in-house against the same 4Cs framework. Heart cuts suit pendants and accent positions.
