Just use the grey goose method increase the price because reasons.
It is FrEnCh
Funny thing is, I’d never heard of it before reading about its success in the US. Nowadays it’s available in supermarkets and some bars, but it’s not really popular AFAICT.
wtf there are people who want to pay more for diamonds to brag about how much they paid for a shiny rock…
I got my wife’s ring with a synthetic diamond. It is beautiful, decently sized, fairly high standard in terms of cut and clarity, colour and flurourescents. It was cheaper and it made her happier because she is an ethical purchaser.
The diamonds in the surround, for someone unknown reason, were natural and were sourced all over the world. They were dofficult to source and put a dampener of the ethical efforts.
People who want to spend money will, but there is 0 need.
Charging more?
Ultimately, yeah. The article points out that the way they want to do it is with unique designs, carbon neutrality, and transparency in the production chain.
De Beers: we can remove the major differentiator by stabbing an enslaved person to death with each lab-grown diamond. This will make them valuable.
yeah high quality has pretty much been defined by what cannot be done in a lab to prop up de beers. Remember on how colored diamonds were a mark of low quality but once they could not stop it then suddenly its special diamond type. oooh.
A pair of Stardew Valley pendants from Etsy is probably more meaningful than diamond rings, tbh.
[De Beers] stating that the economics of lab-grown diamonds for jewelry were not sustainable.
“That’s cheating, we can’t throttle the market of these shiny rocks! The indistinguishable ones you need are still those we’re killing people for!”
I hope one day you can make a perfect gemstone for the cost of a burger, so people just stop caring about them at all.
And bling for everyone!
I see no downside here…
Actually diamons are plenty but suplier choke supplies to make it “rare.”
No thanks. Fuck diamonds and the idiots who buy them
I think diamonds get a bad rep because of shitty companies like De Beers who artificially pump up the price of diamonds. I don’t think anyone would have an issue with diamonds if their price range was comparable to amethyst and made ethically.
Ofc nobody would have problems with a rock if it weren’t used for violence, theft, exploitation, etc. But that’s not the case at all.

Synthetic diamonds are used for none of those things.
