The point of home plate where the two 12-inch sides meet at right angles, is at one corner of a ninety-foot square. Adjacent to each of the two parallel 8½-inch sides is a batter's box. The starting point for much of the action on the field is home plate, which is a five-sided slab of whitened rubber, 17-inches square with two of the corners removed so that one edge is 17 inches long, two adjacent sides are 8½ inches and the remaining two sides are 12 inches and set at an angle to make a point.

You should never expect to be able to sell your diamond for more or the same of what you originally paid for it at retail, whether natural or lab grown, relative to inflation. It is important to note that both grown & mined diamonds do not increase in value over time, relative to inflation, and should not be considered a place to "park" your money.Īda Diamonds advises our clients to view their lab diamond purchase as a luxury, discretionary purchase, not an investment. For example, one of the largest online diamond brokers in the world recently started allowing sales of lab diamonds on its network. IE pawn shops, diamond liquidators, and traditional jewelers many not yet buy lab diamonds at the rate that they purchase mined diamonds however, that is changing as the industry grows.

Ada Diamonds screens all of our diamonds for these material issues and doesn’t sell lab diamonds with unnatural, problematic characteristics.Īda Diamonds is proud of the origin of our diamonds.
These defects make lab created diamonds easy to differentiate from natural diamonds. That being said, there are lab diamonds on the market that contain obvious defects, such as color tinges from impurities in the diamond or crystal structure dislocations from poor quality diamond seeds.
