Some stories don’t begin with sparkle. Ours started with heartbreak.

It was supposed to be a milestone moment—our mother buying her first diamond ring, a proud symbol of decades of resilience and quiet dreams. Instead, it left her with a gnawing sense of doubt. No certification. No authenticity. Just a bill for ₹4 lakh and a sinking realization that she might’ve been taken for a ride.

Turns out, she wasn’t alone. In fact, nearly 48% of jewelry buyers in India fall prey to misinformation, inflated prices, or downright fraud. That experience birthed something unexpected: Carat & Kin.

We weren’t just looking to sell jewelry. We wanted to change the conversation—to challenge outdated norms, restore trust, and make diamonds more democratic.

And now? Gurgaon's millennial and Gen Z brides are right there with us.

Gurgaon Brides Aren't Who You Think They Are Anymore

Old-school opulence? That whole "bigger-is-better" philosophy? It's fading fast.

Today’s Gurgaon bride is informed, eco-conscious, value-driven, and emotionally invested in every detail of her wedding story. She's not just choosing jewelry; she's choosing values.

And lab-grown diamonds are checking all the boxes:

• 100% conflict-free

• Up to 90% more affordable

• Scientifically identical to mined diamonds

• Eco-friendlier with a fraction of the carbon footprint

You could call it a trend. We call it a quiet revolution.

Lab-Grown vs. Mined Diamonds: The Price Difference Will Shock You

Let’s break this down:

• A 1-carat mined diamond = ₹4-6 lakh

• A 1-carat lab-grown diamond = starting at ₹1.25-2 lakh (with full certification)

And no, there’s no catch. Lab-grown diamonds are created in advanced labs using high pressure and temperature—mimicking the natural diamond-growing process. They’re physically, chemically, and optically identical to earth-mined stones.

Honestly, the only thing you’re not paying for? A 3-billion-year-old origin story.

“Solitaire Ring” Now Means Smart Luxury, Not Empty Pockets

Remember when the word "solitaire" was reserved for grandmothers’ heirlooms or multi-crore celebrity weddings?

Not anymore.

Our lab diamond solitaire rings are helping brides claim their sparkle—minus the guilt and the generational debt. Whether it’s:

• A 1.2-carat IGI-certified stunner in rose gold

• A vintage-inspired lab diamond ring with halo detailing

• Or a sleek modern band with minimalist flair

...there’s a solitaire ring for every style and every story.

And if you're wondering about prices?

You could buy lab grown diamonds online for as low as ₹50,000.

• Conscious choices

• Modern identities

And lab-grown diamonds let them do exactly that.

So no more mystery pricing or "just trust me" jewelers.
