Lab-grown diamond quality
D–F colour · VS1 clarity or better
Every lab-grown diamond is D–F colour and VS1 clarity or better. Round brilliant lab-grown diamonds can receive a formal cut grade; fancy shapes are assessed through their proportions, polish, symmetry and overall make. Any piece whose centre stone, on its own, weighs 1.00ct or more includes an individual IGI grading report as standard. Total carat weight does not count towards this.
A full carat feels beautifully balanced when it is shared equally. Alba places 0.50ct at each ear, creating a matched pair with presence on both sides and no extra decoration to dilute the impact. The cool 925 sterling silver keeps the mood fresh, while the pear cuts add a gentle curve that narrows to a fine point.
Each pear cut lab-grown diamond measures 6.00mm by 4.00mm. Together they reach approximately 1.00ct, and each complete earring measures approximately 7.1 x 6.4mm. Alba is built around proportion: equal weights, matching shapes and 925 sterling silver that lets the pair feel substantial without becoming elaborate.
Prefer gold? Alba is also made in solid 14kt and 18kt gold — see the gold version.
Alba gives equal importance to both ears, with two 0.50ct pear cut lab-grown diamonds creating approximately 1.00ct across the pair. Their 6.00mm by 4.00mm proportions bring a distinct outline, while 925 sterling silver provides a cool frame. Every lab-grown diamond is D to F colour and VS1 clarity or better. This is a direct way to wear a full carat without surrounding stones.
Every piece is crafted to order in your chosen metal. Our usual timeline is around four weeks from order to dispatch. More complex pieces may take slightly longer. We confirm the expected timeframe in writing before production begins.
Alba has enough presence to be the main jewellery near the face. Wear the pair with a clean neckline and no necklace, or connect the cool 925 sterling silver with a simple silver bracelet. A low bun or tucked hair leaves the matching pear shapes visible from the front and side.
Sterling silver naturally darkens a little over time. It is normal, and a silver polishing cloth brings it straight back. Please don't use silver dip solutions on lab-grown diamond-set pieces, as the chemicals can damage the settings. Store it on its own in the pouch or box provided, and take it off before swimming, exercising or sleeping. See our Materials & Care guide for full instructions.
How is Alba's one carat divided?
Alba uses two pear cut lab-grown diamonds of 0.50ct each, giving the pair approximately 1.00ct in total. Each one measures 6.00mm by 4.00mm, so both ears receive the same stone weight and dimensions.
What quality are the pear cuts in Alba?
Every pear cut lab-grown diamond in Alba is D to F colour and VS1 clarity or better. The pair is made in 925 sterling silver and carries approximately 1.00ct across its two matched stones.
How should I store and clean Alba?
Keep Alba in the pouch or box provided, separate from other jewellery. Use a silver polishing cloth if the 925 sterling silver darkens, and avoid silver dip solutions because their chemicals can damage the settings.
