Lab-grown diamond prices

Every series here is an average customs price (value divided by quantity), not a retail or dealer quote. Switch between quarterly candles, yearly candles and the monthly line.

How the candles are built: the source data is one number per month. A quarterly candle opens at the first month's price, closes at the last month's, and its high and low are the highest and lowest months. Green outline = the price rose over the period; solid red = it fell. Dashed = period still in progress.

India: polished lab-grown, export price per carat

Gem-quality only from April 2023 (code 71049120); earlier codes 71049010 and 71049100 covered all worked lab-grown diamonds. April 2023 is the first month of the new code and is unusually low.

Two customs codes added together: rough (7104.21) and 'industrial, otherwise worked' (7104.91.10). Until mid-2024 exporters declared most rough stones under the second code, then moved them to the first; the records do not say why. The chart below shows each code. Customs records weight in grams; converted at 5 carats per gram.

Rough lab-grown: China's export records versus India's import records

The same trade seen from both ends: China's exports to Hong Kong, the UAE and India, and India's imports from those three places, April to March. In FY 2025-26 India recorded 1.9 times the carats and 2.9 times the value that China recorded.

Carats

Value

Price per carat

China: codes 7104.21 and 7104.91.10. India: rough lab-grown codes 7104.21.10 and 7104.21.20. Hong Kong and the UAE are trading hubs that also handle stones grown outside China, so the two records need not match exactly. The records alone do not show where the gap comes from. The label on each pair is India's record as a multiple of China's.

Part of the volume is declared at under $2 per carat, mostly from Austria, which pulls the average down. Share of carats declared under $2: 2022 5%, 2023 56%, 2024 48%, 2025 12%, 2026 so far under 1%. India supplied 55% of import value since 2022. China records imports by country of origin, so stones cut in India and shipped through Hong Kong count as coming from India: in FY 2025-26 China recorded $140.9M from India, while India's own records show $22.3M sent straight to China.

Volume bars: carats exported. Small volumes; read the note before using it.

Rose in the periodFell in the periodMoving averageCarats exported

China exports only about 7,000 carats of polished lab-grown diamonds in a typical month, so one large shipment swings the average. Months where a single destination took most of the carats at under $2 per carat: Apr 2022 (United States, 5.00M carats); May 2022 (Taiwan, 8,700 carats); Mar 2023 (Ecuador, 190,000 carats); Jan 2025 (Japan, 16,000 carats); Sep 2026 (Ecuador, 4.56M carats). They are charted as reported; the log scale is on so the other months stay visible.

U.S. Customs counts cut lab-grown diamonds by the stone, not by the carat, so this is a price per stone. A shift toward smaller or larger stones moves it.
