Chemistry:Pure Grown Diamonds
Pure Grown Diamonds was incorporated in April 2013 as Gemesis Inc.[1] The company was incorporated as a retailer of lab grown diamonds[2] to the American market. It is currently a trading company that wholesales lab grown diamonds to the North American diamond and jewelry retailers.[3][4]
In June 2014, Gemesis Inc. re-branded itself as "Pure Grown Diamonds".[5][6]
The website that was used as a retail platform was acquired from a company called Gemesis Diamond Company (GDC) whose primary business was growing diamonds. After the website acquisition, Gemesis Inc. reportedly appointed senior diamond professionals to man the company[7] and then reorganized Gemesis Inc. under the brand name Pure Grown Diamonds.[6]
Diamond production process
Pure Grown Diamond is a wholesaler & distributor of lab grown diamonds.[8][9][10]
Typically, lab grown diamonds are created using 2 methods:
- The High Pressure High Temperature (HPHT) &
- The Chemical Vapor Deposition (CVD) method.[11][circular reference][12]
Records
Pure Grown Diamonds (Gemesis Inc) announced the world's largest lab-created diamond in April 2013, broke that record in November 2013, and then broke the record again in July 2014. The first was a 1.29 carat emerald cut, the second was a princess cut at 1.78 carat,[13] and the third was a 3 carat round brilliant white Type IIa diamond.[14]
