1 Carat Cushion Cut White Gold Lab Diamond Ring+ 1.0-Carat Cushion Lab Created Diamond

Lab diamonds are grown using two methods: HPHT (High Pressure High Temperature), which replicates the conditions deep in the earth, and CVD (Chemical Vapor Deposition), which builds the diamond carbon layer by layer from a gas. Both produce diamonds that are physically and chemically identical to mined stones.

Yes. White gold is rhodium-plated to achieve its bright white finish, and that plating gradually wears away over 1 to 3 years depending on wear. When the plating fades, the ring develops a slightly warm or yellowish undertone from the gold alloy beneath. Replating is a routine service at most jewelers which costs around $150 (or free if purchased from Do Amore), and restores the ring's original look.

A 1 carat round diamond or moissanite measures approximately 6.5mm across. On most hand sizes, it has a noticeable, classic presence without being disproportionately large. The actual visual size also depends on the cut: elongated shapes like oval, pear, and marquise can appear larger than a round stone of the same carat weight.

A cushion cut has a square or rectangular outline with rounded corners, resembling a pillow or cushion shape. Unlike the precisely engineered round brilliant, cushion cuts come in several facet patterns: classic, modified brilliant, and crushed ice. Each produces a different sparkle character. Cushion cuts generally show more colorful fire and a softer, more romantic look than round brilliants.
