At Cavalier Creations we are always seeking out new elements to bring to the design table.  After years of research we decided to add these incredible diamond simulants to our jewelry designs.  While these gorgeous manmade gems are not entirely natural they are comprised of a natural, clear sapphire base and actually incorporate genuine diamond crystals into the surface of each stone.  Among the most high-tech of all diamond simulants, these beauties really capture the essence of a true diamond in terms of physical properties while offering a lot of look without breaking the bank. 

Modern gemstone composite and fusion technology brings us the highest quality “hybrid diamond simulant” available on the market today. The public demand for this type of product has escalated exponentially since the release of the movie called “Blood Diamonds”. Many individuals are seeking non-conflict diamonds and diamond si mulants. We are now able to provide an incredible diamond simulant containing real diamond crystals in its structure at a price significantly more affordable than mined diamonds.

Customers, family and friends are all blown away by the incredible diamond-like appearance of these manmade gems. At a recent gathering a comparison was made between a guest’s very expensive 3ct genuine diamond and a Cavalier Diamond Simulant. We were all in agreement that the Cavalier Diamond Simulant looked as good as, if not better than, the mined diamond (which was incredibly beautiful but cost many, many thousands of dollars).

Our Diamond Simulants are created in a lab in Israel and hand cut by Master diamond cutters in Israel. These gemstones are in a class all by themselves. Most of us have seen plenty of CZs, with our Diamond Simulants you will see a huge difference in the cut and the refraction index. Czs are cut by machine and are not cut to natural diamond standards. They have a glass-like look and often appear less brilliant at different angles. Cavalier Creations' Diamond Simulants are made with real diamond crystals and natural sapphires incorporated into the creation of these gems providing the most diamond-like appearance on the market today. A recent introduction to the jewelry industry has been Moissanite which is double refractive (diamonds and Diamond Simulants are single in refraction) and usually display a very pale yellow to pale green color tone while our Diamond Simulants mimic the highest quality, colorless (D,E or F) genuine mined diamonds. Only cultured grown diamonds at $5000.00 per carat have the exact atomic structure of mined diamonds but our Diamond Simulants allow the consumer to have an alternative and affordable choice with the look and feel of real diamonds!
