RAPAPORT... WD Lab Grown Diamonds has created what it claims to be the
world’s largest known synthetic diamond made using chemical vapor deposition
(CVD).
The ideal-cut, round brilliant, 9.04-carat, VS2-clarity stone
broke the synthetic-diamond producer’s own previous world record of 6 carats, the
company said last week.
“No other CVD-diamond manufacturer has come close to this
size and quality,” Clive Hill, its founder and chairman, claimed. “But this is not
an easy task, and we overcame significant hurdles that we’ll undoubtedly face
and overcome again.”
WD Lab Grown Diamonds intends to work on producing
even larger CVD synthetics, Hill added.
