Natural Diamonds
Natural diamonds are diamonds that were created in nature millions of years ago. Created under intense heat and high pressure, natural diamonds are as unique as they are rare. This is precisely what gives them their value. Coming mainly from Canada, St-Onge natural diamonds are still the most prized today.
Lab Grown Diamonds

They are created in a laboratory using state-of-the-art technologies reproducing the same conditions under which natural diamonds formed, thus speeding up the manufacturing process.
