Takara Fancy Vivid Blue Diamond
We were the first
to sell genuine lab diamonds via the web, starting in 2002.&
Our lab grown diamonds have been shown in major publications
such as Newsweek magazine (Feb, 2009).&

diamonds and yellow
All our inventory is *real* diamond; All are accompanied by an independent
gemological grading report as your assurance of quality.& &
you are unfamiliar with what a genuine cultured, or lab-grown diamond is,
While there
are many sites claiming to offer 'man made diamonds', 'lab
grown diamonds', etc. the reality is nearly all of these are
CZ deceptively advertised.& There are only a handful of
labs in the world that can grow true diamond and even fewer
that sell them.& We only offer the real deal - beautiful,
real diamonds that your jeweler can readily verify are diamond
via a thermal tester.&&& &
To answer the most common question:
All Takara's will test
positive on any form of diamond tester...because Takaras are
*real* diamond
(same molecular composition as mined
diamonds).& The difference is Takaras are grown in a
laboratory and due to the cost savings by not having to mine
hundreds of tons of rock, Takaras can be purchased at a fraction
of the price of their mined counterparts.& Our lab-grown
Yellow Diamonds often sell for 1/7th the price of equivalent mined
yellow diamonds and our lab-grown pink diamonds are offered for as
little as 1/25th the price of their mined pink diamond equivalent.&
Our lab grown blue diamonds sell for as little as 1/30th or better
the price of a natural mined blue diamond.& For reference,
natural blue diamonds of fancy vivid color, in larger sizes, can
command over $1,000,000 USD per carat.& &
Speaking of mined
counterparts, here are a few quotes related to the value of
natural pink and blue diamonds as compared to whites:
“A fine pink
or blue diamond of unquestionable color, meaning, you see the
pink or blue, can cost 10 to 50 times more than a white diamond
of the same size”
&...pink diamonds are known to command prices
exceeding $400,000 per carat...&
National Jeweler Network
the true rarity of these special 'pink' diamonds into
perspective, from every million carats of rough [white] diamonds
produced at the mine, a mere one carat [of pinks] is suitable
for sale...&
From Rio Tinto website [Rio
Tinto owns the Argyle mines, the source of 90% of the worlds
pink mined diamonds].
experience, the more you know about the rarity and beauty of
colored natural diamonds, the more you can appreciate the beauty
and value that our Takara lab-grown diamonds can offer.& Our
pink diamonds are often available for selling prices equivalent to 5% of
the price you would pay to buy the equivalent pink if it was mined
instead of grown in the lab.& We've prepared a brief overview
of both natural and lab grown pink diamonds
Latest news:&
March 19th:& More Blue Diamonds coming soon:

Vivid Yellow princess with VVS2 clarity.&

22nd:& Blue diamonds flying out the door:
We had a very busy holiday sales season, and had over 12 new
lab blue diamonds come in and promptly sell...we're
currently largely sold out of blues, but have posted a
beautiful .63ct for sale today.& We will have another
.77ct available the first week in February.&
Nov 12th:&
First of our blue diamonds posted for sale:
We're thrilled to report that our first lab blue diamond to
come back from grading was graded as an &Ideal cut&.&
This is a .63ct, Fancy Vivid Blue that offers perhaps the
ultimate in blue diamond beauty.& Most natural blue
diamonds are relatively poorly cut in order to ensure
maximum blue color (more depth preserves color but reduces
light return) and maximum value.& With valuations of
natural blue diamonds as high as $1.3Million per carat,
there is a bit of pressure to keep every single point of
weight on the blue diamond.&
Cut controls 98% of a diamonds brilliance, and thus
combining an ideal cut on a Fancy Vivid blue diamond means
incredible color and scintillation.& Pricing and more
details on this stunning lab
Takara .63ct round blue diamond - ideal cut.&
New, largest blue diamonds to date will be ready shortly:
We've got 7 new blue lab grown diamonds that will be posted in
the next two weeks for sale.& Among these are 3, .75ct
size blues, the first time we have ever been able to offer lab
blue diamonds in that size range.&
We've also got a number of .55ct that will make excellent
centers for our halo rings and 3 stone timeless classic.

July 9th:&
Possible new supply of purple and pink diamonds:
We're working with two new labs in an effort to bring
additional lab grown pink and purple diamonds to market.&
We've have had no lack of demand for lab grown pink diamonds,
the problem is its actually quite tough to produce them,
especially in sizes over .50ct.&
The first test samples from our new supplier
are actually purple diamonds and we'll have a complete color
analysis shortly.& We hope they will be able to continue
to improve the growth process to allow for pink production as
For right now, we are sold out of all lab grown
pink diamonds over .50ct.& We've prepared a page
addressing some common questions on both natural and lab grown
pink diamonds .

Takara Pink Diamond Ring featured in Newsweek magazine:
Our largest pink diamond ring to date (featuring a .67ct pink
cultured diamond center) was recently featured in the Newsweek
article titled &Keeping up Appearances&.& The article
largely discussed how savvy shoppers were seeking ways to
enjoy luxury style without the cost and referenced lab grown
diamonds as one way to do that.& We don't have reprint
rights (but did get a nice &Courtesy
at the bottom of the page) so we can't show the whole
article...however, the article is on page 50, and a copy of

a long dry spell, we are expecting to complete a .42ct fancy vivid

that process.&&

May 25th:&
First EternaVista 'treated' pink natural diamond available for
sale...:& We
received our first EternaVista treated pink back from the grading
lab today - it graded as Fancy Vivid Orangey Pink, which has been
a very sought after color in our Takara lab grown diamonds.&
This EternaVista is now available for sale at $1689.50 (.53ct,
Si1, GIA cut grade = Very Good)...this pricing is nearly 40% less
than the equivalent pink lab grown Takaras of the same size and
color, so we are very pleased to have this treatment
available.& Note that the treatment is technically an ion
induction process, that is done to the bottom half of the
diamond.& The process is very stable, and no special care is
required in daily wear or use (clean it, wear it, etc. just like
any other diamond).

first EternaVista are ,
