How to Order Lab-Grown Diamonds Online in Greece?

Buying lab-grown diamonds online in Greece gives you access to a wide selection of diamonds, allowing you to compare shapes, carat weights, quality characteristics and prices before making your decision.

At ANWEVA Diamonds, based in Athens, Greece, you can explore natural and laboratory-grown diamonds, compare their specifications and select the right stone for your purchase or a bespoke piece of fine jewelry.

ANWEVA serves clients in Greece and internationally, combining online diamond sales with gemological expertise and jewelry craftsmanship.


1. What Are Lab-Grown Diamonds?

Laboratory-grown diamonds are real diamonds created in controlled laboratory environments using advanced technologies, primarily HPHT and CVD.

They have essentially the same chemical composition, crystal structure and fundamental optical properties as natural diamonds. Their main difference is their origin.

They are not diamond simulants such as cubic zirconia or moissanite.

Lab-grown diamonds generally offer the opportunity to select a larger carat weight or higher quality grades at a lower price than comparable natural diamonds.


2. Establish Your Budget

Before beginning your search, decide how much you would like to spend.

If the diamond will be used in an engagement ring, earrings or another jewelry design, remember to include the cost of the setting and craftsmanship.

The goal should not simply be to purchase the largest available diamond, but to identify the best combination of quality, appearance and price.


3. Choose Your Diamond Shape

Lab-grown diamonds are available in a wide range of shapes, including:

  • Round Brilliant — classic with exceptional brilliance.

  • Oval — elegant and elongated.

  • Emerald Cut — geometric and sophisticated.

  • Cushion — soft, timeless proportions.

  • Radiant — geometric with strong brilliance.

  • Pear — distinctive and elegant.

  • Marquise — dramatic and elongated.

  • Princess — a contemporary square shape.

For fancy shapes, actual measurements and proportions can be just as important as carat weight.


4. Understand the 4Cs

The traditional 4Cs provide a framework for comparing diamonds:

Carat — Color — Clarity — Cut

Carat refers to the weight of the diamond.

Color describes its color grade, while clarity relates to internal and external characteristics.

Cut quality and proportions influence the visual performance of the stone.

Two diamonds with similar grading characteristics may still look noticeably different. For this reason, proportions, measurements and available visual material should also be considered.


5. Check the IGI Laboratory Grown Diamond Report

Independent grading documentation is particularly important when purchasing a diamond online.

At ANWEVA, you can search for lab-grown diamonds accompanied by an IGI Laboratory Grown Diamond Report.

Depending on the report type, IGI documents the laboratory-grown origin and relevant characteristics of the individual diamond.

Before purchasing, check the report number, carat weight, shape, measurements, color, clarity and applicable cut or finishing information.

You can also verify the report through IGI's official online verification service.


6. Review Diamond Photographs and 360° Videos

A grading report provides essential information, but it cannot fully describe how a diamond looks.

When available, 360° diamond videos allow you to examine the stone's appearance, shape and visible characteristics more closely.

This is especially useful for Oval, Emerald and Cushion diamonds, where proportions and light distribution can significantly influence appearance.

A good online diamond selection combines independent grading information with a visual assessment of the individual stone.


7. Understand the Final Purchase Price

Before completing an order, make sure you understand the total delivered cost.

Check whether the quotation includes applicable VAT, shipping, insurance and any additional services.

For international purchases, customs duties or import taxes may apply depending on the country of destination and shipment arrangements.

Compare the final delivered price rather than only the advertised diamond price.


8. Purchase a Loose Diamond or Create Bespoke Jewelry

Once you have selected your lab-grown diamond, you can purchase it as a loose stone or use it as the centerpiece of a fine jewelry design.

At ANWEVA, we can create engagement rings, solitaire rings, eternity rings, earrings, necklaces, pendants and bespoke fine jewelry.

The process can begin online with diamond selection and continue through our Athens workshop.

Diamond Selection → IGI Report → Jewelry Design → Craftsmanship → Finished Jewelry


9. Can I Order Lab-Grown Diamonds from Anywhere in Greece?

Yes.

You do not need to be physically located in Athens to begin selecting your diamond.

ANWEVA Diamonds serves customers throughout Greece and internationally, allowing you to explore diamond options online and request information about availability, grading documentation, pricing and delivery.

Whether you are in Athens, Thessaloniki, another part of Greece or abroad, the selection process can begin online.
