Weird peeve time. Calling lab grown gemstones “fake” is stupid because it’s the same shit just not formed naturally. An artificially grown diamond is the same shit as a natural diamond it is the exact same material bro it’s all fuckign carbon
It’s carbon it’s pretty and it didn’t involve slave labor what’s not to love??? Hi I’m having geology opinions tonight apparently. And I’m right
There is so much bullshit in the diamonds industry to be mad about tbh. It also ties into the bullshit of the wedding industry as a whole but we don’t have the time to unpack all that
There are a lot of prettier stones for way cheaper too
For decades i see sitcoms do the “is it fake?” And always thought they meant…made of plastic or glass….but they mean…its artificial? Why would i want a 2000 dollar carbon diamond made by dirt when i can buy a cheaper one exactly the same made by science?
its the capitalism. The diamond industry has built its empire on false scarcity and marketing to guilt people into buying the most expensive yet boring rock. With grown diamonds they cant keep up the illusion that diamonds are rare. The sollution? spend just a fortune on marketing to discredit the grown diamonds and make them seem lesser. Fun fact its a similar trend with grown caviar.
