Will the production time for wool diamonds in Russia be reduced to 2 months by September?

Volume~$138
Science
Business
YES chance
DescriptionCurrently, HPHT (high pressure and temperature) technology takes 3 to 6 months to grow a high-quality 1-carat crystal from biomaterial. However, competition among laboratories is growing, and process optimization could speed up the delivery of the “finished gem” to the owner. If Russian jewelers adopt more powerful presses, the turnaround time could be reduced. The question is whether official service providers (such as Diamond Family) will offer a “turnkey” production service (from raw material to cutting) with a turnaround time of less than 60 days.
ConditionsYes: if, by September 1, 2026, the official Russian websites for growing diamonds from wool specify a guaranteed production time of less than 2 months (60 days). No: if the minimum production time remains at 3 months or more.
