Frequently Asked Questions

What is a diamond hybrid?

Diamond Hybrid creates the look and feel of a natural diamond by combining man made diamond crystals and a non-precious core. The diamond crystals, in a patented process, are infused into the outer surface of the core. The crystals actually penetrate the core surface to become a permanent part of the newly created Diamond Hybrid . The infused layer will never peel or disconnect. What sets Diamond Hybrid entirely apart from any other diamond simulant is that Diamond Hybrid is the first and only product that actually uses created diamond and non-precious materials to create the look and feel of a mined diamond.

How is a created diamond hybrid different than a grown diamond?

A Diamond Hybrid is not a man-made stone, but rather is composed of non-precious core crystals, which are then combined with infused-amorphous diamond, which is man-made. During the creation, a core stone, we call the seed, is wrapped and layered with an amorphous diamond composed of tiny diamond crystals. It is then put into a chamber of intense heat and pressure. This process infuses the diamond crystals into the upper layers of the seed, fusing the diamond crystals together resulting in the final product. Unlike so many other diamond simulants, the Diamond Hybrid has the same characteristics as diamond.

Will it pass a diamond tester?

A Diamond Hybrid will not beep on conventional and new generation diamond testers because the heat signature is different than that of natural diamond. This acts as a safeguard for both retailer and customers alike. Since Diamond Hybrid can not be visually detected from natural diamond, this ensures that it will not be accidentally mistaken for one. This is why we use the the Ramen Test to differentiate and identify Diamond Hybrid.
