It is said that those who celebrate big occasions in life wear green 
emerald and 
diamond engagement rings. If you fancy wearing such 
gemstones, it is likely you adore the vibrant green color. Still, have you ever thought what the 
gemstone color resembles?
Emerald, especially, has a symbolism and rich history. Past philosophers believed that wearing an 
emerald would bring fortune and protection against bad outcomes. For instance, the Greek philosopher Aristotle once famously said that one who carried the 
gemstone to a court trial would find a favorable ruling. Today, believers value the 
gem not only for its appearance but also because it augurs well.
Some colored 
diamonds, like pink and yellow, usually get the color from carbon element, but green 
diamonds get the color when it is exposed to radiation during its formation in the Earth’s crust. Apart from that, the same kind of radioactive conditions can be replicated in a laboratory, so that the green color can be exerted to a lab-grown 
diamond too. What’s more, both natural and lab-created 
diamonds have the same physical, chemical, and optical properties, which make them virtually inseparable.

Although natural green 
diamond rings may be rare to find, those featuring lab-created 
diamonds can be found easily in the jewelry market. Moreover, they are relatively cheaper too.
