About Our Celeste Diamonds®
At the heart of The Lily is one of our exclusive Celeste Diamonds®; antique style lab grown diamonds available only at Holts Jewellery.
Unlike standard modern cut diamonds, our Celeste Diamonds® are cut in antique inspired shapes with higher crowns, wider facets and softer proportions, recreating the distinctive sparkle and character of the hand cut diamonds of the late 19th and early 20th centuries.
Created using renewable solar energy, Celeste Diamonds® offer a more sustainable alternative to newly mined diamonds without compromising on beauty or quality, making them the second most sustainable option after choosing an original antique diamond.
