More consumers are gravitating toward man-made diamonds for their striking similarity to natural rocks and their relative affordability.
In 2015, sales of lab diamonds made up less than 1% of all global diamond sales for jewelry. Today, the share is closer to 20%, according to industry data from Paul Zimnisky Diamond Analytics.
With demand increasing, more producers are entering the lab diamond market and prices are dropping even further.

Roberta Flack, the Grammy-winning singer and pianist whose intimate vocal and musical style on "Killing Me Softly with His Song," "The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face" and other hits made her one of the top recording artists of the 1970s and an influential performer long after, died Monday, her publicist confirmed to CBS News. She was 88.
