Our Lab-Grown Diamond Rings Collection
Round
Round brilliant diamonds are the epitome of tradition, but AGI elevates this classic with standout styles like the Claudia, Nora, and Milana rings. These designs feature solitaire or pavé bands with elevated prong settings that enhance light reflection from every angle. Rings like Abby and Ruby include hidden halos and cathedral-style mounts, adding unexpected gleam. Whether you prefer yellow, white, or rose gold, the round-cut lab diamond engagement ring collection offers unmatched versatility.
Oval
Favoured for its finger-flattering silhouette, the oval cut offers a balanced blend of brilliance and grace. Top picks like Abigail, Chloe, and Elsa showcase sleek solitaire bands or fine micropavé detailing that brings attention to the diamond’s elongated form. Some designs, such as Jade and Bella, feature under-gallery detailing and diamond-accented prongs for a luxurious touch from every angle.
Cushion
With their pillow-like shape and vintage charm, cushion-cut lab-created diamond rings are ideal for those who love soft elegance. Rings like Claire, Angelina, and Chloe offer a range of styles from solitaire settings to intricate halos. The Zoe and Nora rings feature high-set stones and knife-edge bands, bringing a fresh, modern flair to this traditional cut.
Radiant / Emerald
For a more structured and contemporary aesthetic, radiant and emerald cuts bring clean lines and dramatic depth. The Victoria, Jade, and Alexandra rings are particularly striking, featuring step-cut facets that produce a unique, hall-of-mirrors sparkle. Paired with hidden halos or geometric baskets, these rings feel both classic and avant-garde.
Princess
With sharp angles and brilliant sparkle, princess-cut rings like Eden and Anne are perfect for those who desire symmetry with a touch of shine. Often paired with delicate pavé or cathedral-style bands, these lab diamond engagement rings make a powerful statement without overwhelming your hand.
Pear / Marquise
If you’re drawn to unconventional elegance, pear and marquise cuts offer something rare and eye-catching. The Liv, Kayla, and Linda rings feature north-south or east-west settings and are often complemented by diamond-accented halos or tapered bands. The Olivia Marquise combines grace and boldness, perfect for brides who want something non-traditional yet breathtaking.
Why Choose Lab Diamond Rings?
Identical to Mined Diamonds
Lab-created diamonds in Canada are real diamonds, not imitations. Composed of pure carbon in a crystalline structure, they score a 10 on the Mohs hardness scale, making them just as durable and brilliant.
Advanced Creation Techniques
These diamonds are grown using cutting-edge technology:
-
HPHT (High Pressure High Temperature): Mimics the natural conditions deep within the Earth to form diamonds.
-
CVD (Chemical Vapour Deposition): Grows diamond layers by layer in a plasma reactor using hydrocarbon gas.
Both processes yield high-quality stones that are virtually indistinguishable from mined diamonds even under a jeweller’s loupe.
Ethical and Conflict-Free
Unlike traditional diamonds, engineered diamonds are 100% conflict-free. They bypass the issues of human rights violations and unethical labour practices, often tied to mining. Their transparent supply chain ensures peace of mind for conscious consumers.
Environmentally Sustainable
Lab-grown diamonds are eco-friendly, requiring significantly less land, water, and energy than mining. They avoid deforestation and habitat destruction, and leading producers are adopting renewable energy sources to further minimize environmental impact.
Customization Possibilities
Lab-grown diamonds offer greater consistency and flexibility in shape, size, and quality. This makes them ideal for custom designs, allowing jewellers to craft more precise and unique engagement rings based on client preferences, whether you’re seeking a rare cut like a marquise or an unusual carat combination.
Certified Quality
Lab-created diamonds in Canada are graded and certified by top gemological labs like IGI or GIA for the 4Cs: Cut, Colour, Clarity, and Carat. This provides complete transparency and ensures quality assurance.
Better Value
Lab diamond rings offer 30–40% more value than mined diamonds of similar quality. This allows customers to choose a larger carat size or higher grade stone within the same budget.

Before buying a diamond ring, consider the following factors:
- Budget: Determine how much you're willing to spend and prioritize your requirements accordingly.
- 4 Cs: Familiarize yourself with the 4Cs (carat weight, cut, color, and clarity) and understand their impact on a diamond's appearance and value.
- Certification: Look for diamonds that come with certifications from reputable gemological laboratories, such as the International Gemological Institute (IGI)
- Setting and Metal: Decide on the type of ring setting and metal that suits your preferences and complements the diamond best.
- Ethical Considerations: If ethical sourcing is important to you, research jewelers that offer conflict-free diamonds or consider lab-grown diamonds.
Lab-grown diamonds are real diamonds but are created in a laboratory setting rather than being formed naturally in the Earth. They possess the same physical, chemical, and optical properties as natural diamonds and can only be distinguished by professionals using specialized equipment. Lab-grown diamonds are not considered "fake" as they share the same crystal structure and chemical composition as natural diamonds.
Although their pricing can be different from natural diamonds, lab-grown diamonds do still hold value. Generally, lab-grown diamonds are more affordable than their natural counterparts. The value of lab-grown diamonds is influenced by factors such as their quality (based on the 4Cs), size, color, and market demand. However, it's important to note that like any luxury item, the value of diamonds can fluctuate over time.
As both natural and lab-grown diamonds consist of carbon atoms arranged in a crystal lattice structure, they are both durable and have the same hardness . They can withstand daily wear and are a great option for engagement rings and other jewelry pieces. However, it's still important to handle any diamond, whether natural or lab-grown, with care to prevent damage.
