What is Simulated Diamonds?

Simulated Diamonds is a synthetic crystalline substance used as an alternative to diamonds. The man-made material is colorless, hard, and flawless. Its popularity stems from its similarity to diamonds in brilliance and crystal clarity while still being affordable.


Historically Simulated Diamonds began being produced in the 1970’s due to its diamond-like qualities, low cost, and overall durability. Today Simulated Diamonds has become one of the most popular stones used in jewelry to create attractive yet inexpensive pieces.
