Pick a Lab Diamond

FAQs

J color in a 1 carat round cut lab created diamond has a faint warm tint that is detectable to some observers, though the round brilliant's superior light dispersion helps more than any other shape. At 1 carat, the warmth is subtle enough to work well in yellow or rose gold settings where the metal neutralizes it. In white gold, color-sensitive buyers may prefer G or H instead.
Yellow gold is the best setting for a 1 carat round J color lab grown diamond. The warm metal completely neutralizes the diamond's body color, making the stone appear whiter. A halo of small colorless diamonds in yellow gold adds visual size while creating a whitening frame around the center stone. Bezel settings in yellow gold also work well by wrapping the edges in warm metal that minimizes color contrast.
J color is worth choosing at 1 carat in a round lab grown diamond if you pair it with yellow or rose gold, where the savings (20% to 30% below G color) come with virtually no visible compromise. The round brilliant gives J color its best possible appearance. Avoid J color in a 1 carat round set in a platinum or white gold solitaire, where the cool-warm contrast is most apparent.
