This one is solid gold throughout, hallmarked, and built around a certified stone. The round brilliant outline was chosen because it carries weight visually - at 1.0 carat it reads larger than a round stone of the same weight. See the full \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/all\"\u003ediamond collection\u003c\/a\u003e for other shapes and carat weights.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eThe Problem\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eRing shopping tends to go the same way. You set a budget, then discover that the natural stone at that price is half the size you pictured. The choice becomes compromise on the stone or stretch the budget, and neither feels good.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhy Solid Gold Changes Everything\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eA lab grown diamond removes that trade-off. It is the same material as a mined diamond - pure carbon, hardness 10 - grown in weeks rather than millions of years. Because supply is not constrained, the same budget buys a substantially larger stone. Set in solid hallmarked gold rather than plated brass, the ring lasts the way an engagement ring should. Every round brilliant diamond engagement ring we make is hallmarked and built to the same standard.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003ePicture This\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eImagine it on the hand rather than in the box. At 1.0 carat the stone is large enough to read across a room, and the round brilliant outline is what makes it recognisable. This is the version of the ring you pictured before you started worrying about price. A round brilliant diamond engagement ring is the piece people remember.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe questions below are the ones buyers ask most often before choosing a round brilliant diamond engagement ring.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow much is a 1 carat lab grown diamond engagement ring?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eA 1 carat lab grown diamond engagement ring at Qutahia starts from around £1,100 in 9ct gold, £1,360 in 14ct and £1,575 in 18ct. Cut affects the price: emerald is the most affordable, marquise the highest. A natural diamond of the same weight typically costs three to five times more.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhy is round brilliant the most popular diamond cut?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe round brilliant has 57 facets arranged to return the maximum amount of light. It is the most studied cut in the trade and the benchmark other shapes are measured against.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat is the difference between lab grown and natural diamonds?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eOnly the process of formation. A natural diamond forms underground over millions of years; a lab grown diamond is produced in weeks with the same crystal structure. Hardness, brilliance and chemical composition are identical. The price difference is three to five times.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eDo lab grown diamonds have resale value?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eLimited. Resale value for lab grown diamonds is markedly lower than for natural diamonds, and continues to fall as production costs drop. If you are buying an engagement ring as an investment, lab grown is not the right choice. Most people buy one to wear, not to sell.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eShould I buy a lab grown diamond engagement ring?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt makes sense if you want a larger or cleaner stone for the same budget. It does not make sense if you are buying for investment, because resale value is low. For most buyers an engagement ring is a piece to wear rather than an asset to sell.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhich gold carat should I choose - 9ct, 14ct or 18ct?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e9ct is the most common choice in the UK: it is harder, so it scratches less in daily wear, and it is the most affordable. 18ct gives a richer gold colour and is softer. 14ct sits between the two. All three are hallmarked.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAre lab grown diamonds certified?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eIGI and GIA both certify lab grown diamonds. The certificate confirms carat, colour, clarity and cut, and states clearly that the stone is lab grown.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Qutahia Jewellery","offers":[{"title":"Yellow Gold \/ 9 ct \/
