About Lab-Grown Diamonds
Lab-grown diamonds are chemically and optically identical to mined diamonds — same carbon crystal structure, same hardness (10 on Mohs), same fire and brilliance. They're produced in controlled environments using either HPHT (high pressure, high temperature) or CVD (chemical vapor deposition) over several weeks. The visible difference is price: lab-grown diamonds typically cost 30–70% less than mined diamonds of equivalent grade, allowing buyers to step up significantly in size, color, or clarity at the same budget. Every lab-grown diamond at ATL Luxury Jewelers is laser-inscribed and certified by IGI or GCAL.
About 14K Rose Gold
14K rose gold gets its romantic pink hue from a copper-rich alloy — typically around 25% copper combined with silver. The color is warm, slightly less intense than 10K rose, and ages beautifully without tarnishing or requiring rhodium replating. Rose gold has been a defining engagement-ring trend of the last decade, pairing especially well with morganites, peach sapphires, and oval and cushion-cut diamonds. It flatters most skin tones and reads as both vintage and modern.
About Cuff Bracelets
A cuff is a rigid open-ended bracelet that's flexed to slip over the wrist and conforms once worn — distinct from bangles (closed circles) or chain bracelets. Cuffs can feature minimal smooth polished metal, sculptural geometric forms, diamond pavé across the face, or wide statement metalwork. The open construction means cuffs can be sized to fit a range of wrist diameters and adjusted slightly over time. Cuff bracelets are particularly popular in men's fine jewelry.
