Celebrate Earth Day at a Free Lab-Grown Diamond Workshop

Cottage Hill Diamonds Presents a Diamond Education Event April 22

Every April 22nd since 1970, people around the globe celebrate the anniversary of the environmental awareness movement by providing education and open discussion regarding our Earth and how to improve our green-minded processes. Earth Day is a time to assess our practices and attempt to improve our habits, reducing our footprint and our negative effect on our environment.

In celebration and support of Earth Day, Cottage Hill Diamonds will be holding a free teach-in about the creation, eco-consciousness and beauty of lab-grown diamonds. Learn about the differences between lab-grown and mined diamonds, how lab-grown diamonds are made, and where they’re created. You will even be able to compare them to mined diamonds under a microscope! They’ll present information on Mark Schneider’s Terramour, which has brought the best of both design and eco-consciousness together in one combine by offering uninhibited incorporation of lab grown diamonds for any of their rings.

What's even better? If you complete one of their "Dinner for Two" forms during this event, you will be entered to win a pair of 1/4 carat lab grown diamond stud earrings valued at $499!

The Earth Day celebration will be held on April 22nd from 10AM to 5PM. The first 20 customers who visit will receive a goodie bag to take home filled with seeds for the garden and other small surprises! This is an informational event and there’s no pressure to purchase. Organic cookies will be served, and all are welcome! Cottage Hill Diamonds is located at 125 N. York Road, in Elmhurst.
