Pick a Lab Diamond

FAQs

J color in an emerald cut lab grown diamond shows a clearly visible warm tint. The emerald's step-cut facets are the most transparent of any standard diamond shape, and they display body color very openly. J color's warmth is more apparent in an emerald cut than in any brilliant-cut shape. In yellow gold the warmth can blend, but in white gold or platinum, J color in an emerald cut is generally not recommended.
J color is best avoided in an emerald cut lab grown diamond set in white gold or platinum, as the transparent step-cut facets reveal the warm body color very openly against cool metal. In yellow gold, J color is more manageable since the warm metal minimizes the contrast. If budget is a primary concern and you are set on yellow gold, J can work, but most emerald cut buyers are better served by G or H color.
If you choose a J color emerald cut lab created diamond, set it in yellow gold with a bezel setting that wraps warm metal around the stone's edges. This provides maximum color neutralization. A three-stone setting with warm-toned side stones can also help. Avoid thin solitaire settings in white gold or platinum, as these create the most unflattering contrast for J color in the emerald's transparent facets.
