Created in controlled, traceable environments.
All MER metals are made with SCS Certified 100% recycled gold and platinum.
No. Lab and mined diamonds look identical to the naked eye and are graded the same way.
Because you’re not paying for mining costs, inflated rarity, or luxury markups.
Yes. They are just as brilliant, hard, and enduring as mined diamonds.
Cut is what makes a diamond sparkle. It refers not to the shape, but to how well the stone’s facets are proportioned, angled, and polished. A well-cut diamond reflects light brilliantly, creating fire, brightness, and scintillation. At MER, we focus on excellent and very good cuts, ensuring your diamond radiates beauty from every angle.
Color measures the natural tint within a diamond. The less color present, the more valuable and rare the diamond becomes. Diamonds are graded from D (colorless) to Z (light yellow or brown). MER selects diamonds in the near-colorless range, offering a bright, timeless look that balances beauty and value.
Clarity describes the presence of tiny internal marks (inclusions) or external blemishes within a diamond. Most are microscopic and invisible to the naked eye. Clarity grades range from Flawless (no inclusions) to Included. At MER, we choose diamonds with clarity that delivers stunning brilliance while offering exceptional quality.
Carat refers to a diamond’s weight, not its physical size. While a higher carat weight often means a larger stone, two diamonds of the same weight can look very different depending on their cut and shape. At MER, we guide you to find the perfect balance between carat weight, sparkle, and budget.
Real diamonds created with trace elements that add pink, yellow, or blue hues. Chemically and physically identical to mined colored diamonds.
Sapphires, emeralds, and rubies made from the same materials as their natural counterparts, but in a clean, controlled lab.
Both are stunning, authentic, and crafted to MER’s standard of meaning, beauty, and lasting quality.
Round, oval, cushion, or emerald—your choice of shape sets the style and personality of the diamond.
Define a range upfront so you can focus on the best options without distraction.
Decide what matters most to you: maximum sparkle (cut), size (carat), or rarity (color/clarity).
Always choose a diamond graded by a respected lab (IGI or equivalent) for authenticity and value.
