See moreWecord London offers one of the most accessible lab grown diamond jewellery collections in the UAE, with over 25 handcrafted pieces starting from just 250 AED. While most lab grown diamond brands in Dubai start their entry point above 3,000 AED in 18k gold settings, Wecord delivers the same chemically identical diamonds in beautifully designed 925 sterling silver and 18k gold vermeil pieces that are handcrafted in London and built to last. The collection spans stud earrings, hoop earrings, necklaces, cord bracelets, chain bracelets, and diamond watches.
Every lab grown diamond used by Wecord London is chemically, physically and optically identical to a mined diamond. They share the same carbon crystal structure, the same hardness (10 on the Mohs scale), the same refractive index, and the same fire and brilliance. The only difference is their origin: they are created in controlled laboratory environments rather than extracted from the earth. This makes them ethically sourced, environmentally sustainable, and conflict free. Whether set as a single accent on a Soho Diamond bracelet or covering an entire surface on the Pave Soho Earrings, these diamonds deliver real, visible sparkle that holds up under any light.
The collection is organised across three levels of diamond coverage: accent pieces with a single lab diamond from 250 AED, diamond detailed pieces with prominent diamond settings from 325 AED, and full pave designs covered entirely in diamonds from 700 AED. All pieces ship within 48 hours across the UAE with a two year worldwide warranty, and are available to try on at the Dubai Mall and Al Khawaneej Walk stores.

Lab Grown Diamond Jewellery
Lab Grown Diamond Jewellery in Dubai: Accessible Luxury from Wecord London
Lab grown diamonds have transformed the jewellery industry over the past decade. What was once a niche category is now one of the fastest growing segments in luxury accessories, driven by consumers who want real diamonds without the ethical concerns, environmental impact, or extreme price tags associated with mined stones. In the UAE, where jewellery is both a cultural tradition and a daily styling choice, lab grown diamonds offer a way to own genuine diamond pieces for everyday wear rather than reserving them for rare occasions.
The challenge for most shoppers in Dubai is that lab grown diamond jewellery from established brands still carries a significant price premium. Most collections start above 3,000 AED because they use 18k solid gold settings, which adds substantial cost before you even account for the diamonds. Wecord London takes a different approach. By crafting pieces from 925 sterling silver with 18k gold vermeil, rhodium, or rose gold finishes, Wecord delivers the same diamond quality and visual impact at a fraction of the price, starting from just 250 AED for a lab diamond necklace. The diamonds are identical. The craftsmanship is identical. The difference is the setting metal, and for daily wear, 925 sterling silver actually offers advantages including lighter weight, hypoallergenic properties, and the ability to resist tarnishing when properly finished.
Lab Grown Diamonds: What They Are and Why They Matter
A lab grown diamond is a real diamond. It is not cubic zirconia, moissanite, or crystal. It is pure carbon crystallised in the same cubic structure as a mined diamond, with identical hardness (10 on the Mohs scale), identical refractive index (2.42), identical thermal conductivity, and identical optical dispersion that creates the fire and brilliance diamonds are known for. Even trained gemologists cannot distinguish between a lab grown and mined diamond without specialised equipment.
Lab grown diamonds are created using two primary methods: High Pressure High Temperature (HPHT) and Chemical Vapour Deposition (CVD). Both replicate the natural conditions under which diamonds form in the earth's mantle, but in a controlled environment that takes weeks rather than millions of years. The result is a diamond that is atomically identical to one found in a mine, but produced without the land displacement, water usage, carbon emissions, and human rights concerns associated with diamond mining.
For Wecord London, the decision to use lab grown diamonds aligns with the brand's broader commitment to ethical sourcing and environmental responsibility. The same philosophy extends to the use of recycled packaging materials and sustainable production practices.
Pave Diamond Jewellery
The pave technique is the most visually dramatic way to set diamonds. Small diamonds are placed closely together across a surface with minimal metal visible between them, creating an unbroken field of sparkle. Wecord's pave range covers earrings, necklaces, cord bracelets and chain bracelets.
The Pave Soho Earrings (1,900 AED) are the collection's premium earring, with the entire stud surface covered in lab grown diamonds in golden or silver finishes. The charms are interchangeable, adding versatility to the sparkle. The Soho Hoop Earrings (950 AED) feature a reversible design with a full diamond pave side and a smooth metal side, giving you two looks in one pair.
The Pave Soho Necklace (1,100 AED) and Mini Soho Pave Necklace (850 AED) bring the same full pave coverage to the neckline in standard and delicate mini formats.
The pave cord bracelets include the Golden Soho Pave (850 AED) as the full size flagship, plus three mini versions: Mini Golden Soho Pave (700 AED), Mini Silver Soho Pave (700 AED), and Mini Rose Soho Pave (700 AED), the last of which is exclusively available in rose gold. The Mini Soho Pave Chain (750 AED) presents the pave diamond look on a fine sterling silver chain bracelet rather than cord.
Diamond Accent Jewellery
Not every diamond piece needs to shout. The diamond accent range features a single lab grown diamond set into each charm, adding a point of sparkle that catches light in a subtle, refined way. These pieces sit at a more accessible price point while still delivering genuine diamond brilliance.
The cord bracelets include the Silver Soho Diamond (425 AED), Golden Soho Diamond (475 AED), Mini Silver Soho Diamond (325 AED), and Mini Golden Soho Diamond (375 AED). The mini versions are particularly popular for women who want everyday diamond wear in a delicate format.
The stud earrings with lab diamond accents include the Golden Soho Earrings (from 350 AED), Silver Soho Earrings (from 350 AED), Silver Clover Earrings (350 AED), and Golden Clover Earrings (350 AED). All feature the interchangeable gemstone system, so you get diamond sparkle plus the ability to change your look with carnelian, green agate, onyx and other natural stones.
The necklaces with diamond accents include the Golden Soho Necklace (from 350 AED), Silver Soho Necklace (from 350 AED), Golden Clover Necklace (350 AED), and Silver Clover Necklace (250 AED), the most affordable lab diamond piece in the entire collection.
The Panda Collection
The Panda Collection uses lab grown diamonds differently from the Soho and Clover ranges. Rather than accent points or pave surfaces, the diamonds are set to create the panda's face and features, resulting in a playful and distinctive design that combines diamond sparkle with character. The Panda Necklace (950 AED) and Panda Bracelet (850 AED) both feature the diamond panda pendant on 925 sterling silver chains.
Diamond Watches
Three watches in the collection feature lab grown diamonds, adding brilliance to Swiss Ronda 1062 quartz movements, stainless steel 316L cases and anti reflective sapphire crystal. The Duke Watch Small with Diamonds (1,850 AED) combines the Duke's iconic rectangular silhouette with diamond accents. The Duke Watch Limited Edition with Diamond (1,950 AED) adds Arabic numeral markers and is limited to 100 pieces per colourway. The Oliver Watch Small with Diamonds (1,850 AED) brings a diamond bezel to the sporty round Oliver profile.
Building a Lab Diamond Jewellery Set
One of the strengths of Wecord's lab diamond collection is how easily you can build a coordinated set across multiple pieces. Here are some approaches.
Full pave diamond set: pair the Pave Soho Earrings with the Mini Soho Pave Necklace and a Mini Golden Soho Pave bracelet. All three feature the same full diamond coverage across matching Soho motifs. Add the Soho Hoop Earrings on the pave side as an alternate earring option for evenings.
Everyday diamond set: combine a Mini Silver Soho Diamond bracelet with Silver Soho Earrings and a Silver Soho Necklace. Each piece has a single diamond accent for subtle, wearable sparkle that works from office to dinner. Total set from under 1,100 AED.
Mixed diamond and watch set: a Duke Watch Small with Diamonds on the wrist with a Mini Silver Soho Pave bracelet creates a diamond coordinated wrist stack. Add pave earrings or a pave necklace to extend the diamond theme to the full outfit.
Lab Grown Diamonds vs Mined Diamonds
The question many shoppers ask is whether lab grown diamonds are "real." The answer is unequivocally yes. Lab grown diamonds share every measurable property with mined diamonds: the same chemical composition (pure carbon), the same crystal structure (cubic), the same hardness (10 on the Mohs scale), the same refractive index, and the same thermal conductivity. They are graded using the same 4C system (cut, colour, clarity, carat) used for mined diamonds.
The practical advantages of lab grown diamonds include ethical sourcing with no mining related environmental damage or human rights concerns, a significantly lower price per carat than mined equivalents, and full traceability of origin. For everyday jewellery worn in Dubai's climate, lab diamonds perform identically to mined stones: they do not scratch, fade, cloud, or lose their brilliance over time. A lab grown diamond set in a Wecord bracelet today will look exactly the same decades from now.
Lab Grown Diamonds vs Moissanite and Cubic Zirconia
It is important to distinguish lab grown diamonds from diamond alternatives. Moissanite (silicon carbide, hardness 9.25) is a beautiful stone in its own right and is used in Wecord's Clover Earrings and Unity Collection, but it is not a diamond. Cubic zirconia (zirconium dioxide, hardness 8 to 8.5) is a much softer stone that scratches easily and clouds over time. Lab grown diamonds at hardness 10 are in a completely different category of durability and optical performance.
Lab Diamond Jewellery as Gifts
Lab grown diamond jewellery makes an exceptional gift because diamonds carry universal significance as symbols of lasting value. The Wecord collection makes diamond gifting accessible at every budget. The Silver Clover Necklace at 250 AED is a genuine diamond gift under 300 AED. The Mini Silver Soho Diamond bracelet at 325 AED adds diamond sparkle to the wrist under 350 AED. The Pave pieces from 700 AED deliver serious diamond impact for special occasions. The diamond watches from 1,850 AED are milestone gifts that combine Swiss precision with diamond brilliance.

Frequently Asked Questions
Are lab grown diamonds real diamonds?
Yes. Lab grown diamonds are chemically, physically and optically identical to mined diamonds. They are pure carbon with the same crystal structure, the same hardness (10 on the Mohs scale), the same refractive index, and the same fire and brilliance. Even trained gemologists cannot distinguish them without specialised equipment. They are graded using the same 4C system as mined diamonds.
What is the cheapest lab grown diamond piece at Wecord?
The Silver Clover Necklace at 250 AED is the most affordable lab grown diamond piece in the collection. The Mini Silver Soho Diamond cord bracelet at 325 AED is the most affordable diamond bracelet. Both are crafted from 925 sterling silver with genuine lab grown diamonds.
How is Wecord's lab diamond jewellery so affordable compared to other brands?
Most lab diamond brands in Dubai set their stones in 18k solid gold, which significantly increases the base cost before the diamond is even added. Wecord uses 925 sterling silver with 18k gold vermeil (3 microns), which provides the same visual appearance and tarnish resistance at a fraction of the metal cost. The diamonds themselves are identical in quality. The savings come from the setting metal, not from any reduction in diamond quality.
What is the difference between pave and diamond accent pieces?
Pave pieces (from 700 AED) have their entire charm surface covered in lab grown diamonds set closely together for maximum sparkle. Diamond accent pieces (from 250 AED) feature a single lab grown diamond set into the design for a subtle point of brilliance. Both use the same quality lab grown diamonds; the difference is the amount of coverage and visual impact.
Will lab grown diamonds scratch, fade or cloud over time?
No. Lab grown diamonds have the same hardness as mined diamonds (10 on the Mohs scale), making them the hardest gemstone available. They will not scratch under normal wearing conditions, will not fade or discolour, and will not cloud or lose clarity over time. A lab grown diamond purchased today will look identical decades from now.
What is the difference between lab grown diamonds and moissanite?
Lab grown diamonds are pure carbon (hardness 10) and are identical to mined diamonds. Moissanite is silicon carbide (hardness 9.25) and is a separate gemstone with its own optical properties, including higher fire than diamonds. Both are used in the Wecord collection: lab grown diamonds in the Soho, Pave, Panda and watch ranges, and moissanite in the Clover Earrings and Unity Collection.
Can I build a matching diamond jewellery set?
Yes. The collection is designed for coordination. You can match pave earrings with a pave necklace and pave bracelet for a full diamond set, or combine diamond accent earrings with an accent necklace and accent bracelet for a more subtle everyday set. Keeping the metal tone consistent (all golden, all silver, or all rose gold) creates the most cohesive look.
Are lab grown diamonds ethical and environmentally friendly?
Yes. Lab grown diamonds are created in controlled laboratory environments without any mining, land displacement, or associated environmental damage. They are fully traceable, conflict free, and have a significantly smaller carbon footprint than mined diamonds. Wecord London's use of lab grown diamonds is part of the brand's wider commitment to sustainable and responsible jewellery making.
Do diamond pieces come with a warranty?
Yes. Every lab grown diamond piece from Wecord London comes with a two year worldwide warranty covering any material or craftsmanship defects. Returns and exchanges are accepted within 15 days. Visit the shipping and returns page for full details.
