Lab-grown diamonds are growing more popular with newlyweds - as a more sustainable alternative to mined gems
Laboratory-grown diamonds are booming in popularity as newlyweds opt for a more sustainable alternative to mined gems.
Some jewellers say interest has grown by more than 2,000 per cent in five years, as people look for more affordable options.
Physically and chemically identical to their natural counterpart, but costing up to 85 per cent less, lab-grown diamonds are increasingly being seen as the better-value alternative.
