Elegant Nova Diamond Ring, Limelight Diamonds,₹ 42,085

Diamonds are considered a girl’s best friend but when the same are available for half the price, they become even more precious. The jewellery industry has been truly revolutionised with the advent of lab-grown diamonds as an alternative to natural diamonds. Created in cultivated environments by replicating the conditions in which natural diamonds are formed, synthetic diamonds cost a fraction of their natural counterparts while being visually and chemically identical to the latter. A host of homegrown brands including Avtaara by Anushikha Sanghvi Shah, DiAi Designs by Disha Shah, Itara Jewelry by Shivika Poonglia, and Limelight Diamonds by Pooja Sheth Madhavan among others, offer a variety of styles—from tennis bracelets, solitaire rings and eternity bands to pendant chains to earrings and necklaces—in the lab-grown diamond segment.
