Fake diamonds in the past is too obvious. So were fake bags. Now not so obvious. That's why affluents going much higher end to Hermes because you can't really tell a Prada from fake anymore but you can sort of tell if the person can afford HermesTai-tais are not going to ask for diamond grading certificates
That's the world of vanity they operate in. So if lab diamonds and real diamonds cannot be distinguishable, my guess is that it will have huge impact on diamond industry, provided the lab diamonds are able to break in. Sometimes it's mere politics, not quality. If lab diamonds manage to get a foothold in the market, I would say it WILL impact Sarine.
And we all know what is the value of diamonds in secondary market because of De Beers.
