Signet Jewelers is now selling lab-grown diamonds through all of its major U.S. brands, Rapaport News reports.
Such diamonds are available at Jared, Zales, James Allen and Kay stores and websites, said David Bouffard, Signet vice president of corporate affairs, according to the news site.
Both fashion and bridal jewelry pieces are being sold. At Jared, loose lab-grown diamonds and setting are available.
Signet states that it accepts mined-diamond jewelry for trade-in but does not accept lab-grown-diamond jewelry.
Signet first got into lab-grown diamonds via James Allen, which began offering the products around May of this year.
James Allen stated at the time: “Lab-created diamonds allow you to maximize your budget, giving up to 30% more size for the same cost, while earth-created diamonds are incredible works of nature and the traditional choice.”

Closing With Confidence: How Bailey's Fine Jewelry Achieved Outstanding Results With Wilkerson
When Trey Bailey, President and CEO of Bailey's Fine Jewelry, decided to close the Crabtree location in Raleigh, North Carolina after 15 years, he knew the decision needed to be handled with intention and professionalism. The goal was clear: exit the location while maintaining financial strength and honoring the store's legacy.
Having worked with Wilkerson successfully in the past, Bailey understood the value of their comprehensive approach. "They understood both the emotional and financial sides of the store closing sale," Trey explains. "Their reputation for professionalism, results and care made it a very easy decision."
The results exceeded expectations. Wilkerson helped Bailey's sell through significant inventory while maintaining the dignity of the closing process. "They don't just run a sale, they help close a chapter in the best way possible," Bailey says, strongly recommending Wilkerson to any jeweler facing a similar transition.
