Lab Diamond Prices Drop — Natural Diamond Sales Surge

(PRESS RELEASE) At GN Diamond, we speak with over 4,000 independent retail jewelers each week, giving us a unique pulse on the industry. One trend is becoming unmistakably clear: natural diamonds are making a powerful comeback.

While large lab-grown diamonds have captured recent attention, their plunging prices are driving savvy consumers back toward the long-term value and rarity of natural, GIA-certified diamonds. In effect, lab diamonds are becoming billboards for larger natural diamonds—sparking customer interest but ultimately reinforcing the value of natural stones.

Rising Sales of Natural Diamonds & Jewelry

According to data from Tenoris, the average diamond sale in the U.S. has reached $15,284, a year-over-year increase of more than 20%. Retailers nationwide are reporting not only stronger sales of loose natural diamonds, but also increased demand for finished natural diamond jewelry.

Why Natural Diamonds? Why Now?

  • Mining is down, creating an overall shortage of natural diamonds in the U.S. market.
  • Lab-grown diamond prices are declining, raising concerns for consumers about long-term value.
  • Newly implemented tariffs on lab and natural diamonds are expected to drive up their costs further—making natural diamonds even more attractive.

All these factors are creating a unique opportunity for retailers to invest in natural inventory and capture higher-margin sales.
