Every Chiron lab grown diamond, held to the same four numbers.
We do not chase a weight and hope the light follows. We start with the four properties that make a princess cut fire, then the total carat weight is the size you want it in.
Colourless to near colourless. The top end of the wearable range, reads brilliantly clean white against skin.
Very Slightly Included. Eye clean under any light at princess cut size. You will never see an inclusion without magnification.
Four crown facets, four pavilion mains. Each stone cut for perfect light return through the table.
Every diamond in the row hand matched by our master jeweller for colour, clarity and size, so the bracelet reads as one clean line of light.
Total carat weight is not just a number, it is a visible decision.
A 4.5ct bracelet catches light on the wrist. An 18ct bracelet reads from across a room. Same design, same E/F colour, same VS clarity across every stone. The only thing changing is the size of each princess cut and the light each one throws.
Refined weight on the wrist. Wears easily under a sleeve, catches light at every turn. Our most chosen tier for a first tennis bracelet.
Serious weight, visible from across a room. Reads as jewellery worth noticing without shouting. The reason people commission a Chiron.
If you want a larger total than 18 carats, we will commission it as a bespoke piece. Speak with us to start the conversation.
The architecture of a Chiron.
Every Chiron is built the same way, whatever tier you choose. Channel setting, hidden safety catch, matched princess cuts along the full length. The metal weight scales with the tier so the bracelet always drapes properly.
Standard length is 18cm (7.1 inches), sized for an average adult wrist. If your wrist is smaller or larger, we resize before shipping, no charge.
About this Chiron.
The same bracelet, grown above ground.
This is the Chiron built with lab grown diamonds. Same channel setting, same princess cuts sitting edge to edge, the same eight total weights from 4.5 to 18 carats. What changes is where the diamonds came from, and what they cost.
What the saving actually looks like
At 4.5 carats in 10ct white gold the lab Chiron is $11,695, against $16,195 for the natural version. That is about 28 per cent less. The gap widens as the bracelet gets heavier, because the diamonds make up more of the cost: at 18 carats in 18ct white gold it is $41,295 against $77,295, a little under half.
That is the honest reason most people choose lab grown for a tennis bracelet. This design needs between 42 and 76 stones matched for colour and clarity. Buying that many natural diamonds at matched grade is most of what makes the natural version expensive.
The trade-off
Lab grown diamonds are chemically and optically diamond. They are made in a controlled facility rather than mined, and growing them uses energy. They also have not held their value the way natural diamonds have, because supply is not constrained in the same way. If you are buying a bracelet to wear, that rarely matters. If you are buying it to pass on, it is worth knowing before you decide.
The diamonds
E to F colour, VS clarity, on every weight and every metal. One specification and no clarity decision to make, because at lab grown prices there is no good reason to sell you the lower grade.
Metal
10ct, 14ct or 18ct gold in white or yellow, or 950 platinum. White gold and platinum are rhodium finished. Yellow gold is left uncoated so it keeps its own colour.

Questions we get most.
Which total carat weight should I choose?
Most first time tennis bracelet buyers land in the 5.0 to 8.0 carat range. It is a real, visible piece of jewellery without being showy. If you already own diamond jewellery and want a bracelet that reads as substantial from across a room, look at 10ct upward. Speak with us if you are not sure, we will show you both on a video call.
What is the difference between the lab grown and the natural Chiron?
The design is identical. Same channel setting, same princess cuts, same metal options, same 8 total carat weights. The diamonds themselves are chemically, optically and physically identical too. The only difference is how they were formed, natural over billions of years, lab grown in weeks. Both hold to the same E to F colour standard. Lab grown lands at VS2 clarity, natural gives you the choice of VS or SI1. The price difference is the main reason people pick one over the other.
Is 18ct gold worth the extra over 14ct?
For a tennis bracelet, yes. 18ct has more warmth in yellow, more weight, and the channel setting holds up better long term. 14ct is a smart choice if you would rather put more into the diamond weight. We are happy to compare the same total carat weight in both, side by side.
How does the sizing work?
Standard length is 18cm which fits most adult wrists comfortably. On order, we ask for your wrist measurement in centimetres and adjust before shipping. If it does not fit when it arrives, one complimentary resize within 60 days of delivery.
Can I pay in instalments?
Yes. On any Chiron above $2,000 you can pay a 50% deposit at order and the balance on completion, typically 4 to 8 weeks later. No interest, no surcharge. Or full payment at order if you prefer.
What is covered by the lifetime warranty?
Craftsmanship for life. Any manufacturing fault, we repair or replace at no cost. Stone loss from a defective setting, covered. Wear damage from accidents or wear and tear over time is not included but we will always quote a fair repair.
