Inspired by the beauty of the winter, Brilliant Earth dropped The Solstice Collection, which shares [conflict-free diamonds](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/caratbee) and celebrates the season of light. There are 16 pieces in the collection, ranging from necklaces and rings to earrings made with ethical, [lab-grown diamonds](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/labgrown-diamond-jewelry).

Designed in-house by the San Francisco-based brand, the jewelry designs dazzle with cultured diamonds that are made with a High-Pressure High Temperature (HPHT) process that needs no post-treatment. In this way, the responsibly created diamonds mimic the growth conditions of natural stones.

A standout piece from The Solstice Collection is the $99,990 18K White Gold Glacé Lab Created Diamond Necklace that is formed by "a flurry" of round, marquise and pear-shaped diamonds.
