Each diamond will be accompanied by its own laboratory certificate, VDB reports.

“Hosting this auction is a natural progression for us, connecting buyers and sellers in a seamless, safe, and trusted environment,” Nisguretsky says. “We are making it possible for retail buyers, designers, and manufacturers to find, buy, and/or sell some of the best and largest laboratory-grown diamonds available, at the very best prices to date.”
