What Are Moisannite Diamonds
Moissanite (silicon carbide) is a lab-created gemstone first discovered in 1893 in meteorite fragments. Since natural moissanite is extremely rare, all gem-quality stones used today are laboratory-grown using advanced technology. That makes them a scientifically created gemstone—not mined—and crafted to showcase exceptional beauty and sparkle.
Why Moissanite Looks Like a Diamond (But Looks Better!)
Moissanite has a higher refractive index (~2.65) than diamond (~2.42), meaning it sparkles just as brightly, if not more so. Its dispersion (fire) is about twice as high as diamond, creating dazzling rainbow flashes that appear even more vibrant in larger stones.
Modern moissanites are often colorless (comparable to D–F diamond grades) or near-colorless (G–I), so many look like pure white diamonds.
Most moissanites are virtually flawless to the naked eye, rivaling the highest clarity diamonds (VVS/VS grades).
Expert cutters shape moissanite into classic styles (round, cushion, oval, etc.) with excellent symmetry and polish, ensuring maximum brilliance and beauty.
In short: A well-cut moissanite looks undeniably like a diamond, often with more fire—making it a captivating choice that catches the eye.
Durability That Lasts a Lifetime
Moissanite ranks 9.25–9.5 on the Mohs hardness scale (diamond is 10), making it one of the hardest gemstones. It resists scratching and daily wear almost as well as diamond.
Unlike diamonds, moissanite has no cleavage planes, meaning it won’t split cleanly under pressure.
Whether you’re working in the garden or cooking dinner, moissanite will stand up beautifully against normal wear and tear.
Save Big Without Sacrificing Beauty
Moissanite offers dramatic savings—up to 80–90% less than natural diamonds, and even 60–70% less than lab-grown diamonds of similar size and quality.
Want a 2‑carat “diamond”? Opt for moissanite and keep your costs much lower.
No hidden premiums based on rarity—the price is based on size and quality, making moissanite a smart, stress-free jewelry investment.
Ethical, Sustainable, and Conflict-Free
No mining. No land excavation. No environmental degradation.
Produced in labs, moissanite avoids carbon-heavy mining processes. And as manufacturers increasingly switch to renewable electricity, its environmental impact shrinks further.
Because moissanite never touches a mine, it’s 100% free of human rights concerns, war funding, child labor, or dangerous work conditions.
The Trend that’s Here to Stay
Moissanite accounts for roughly 10% of engagement rings globally, making it the most common non-diamond alternative.
With global sales projected to double in the next few years, moissanite is rapidly gaining traction.
Moissanite is not just for budget brides—designers love it for creative, affordable, and stylish rings that deliver maximum impact.
Deciding Which Is Right for You
Opt for a lab-grown diamond to keep costs down while maintaining authenticity.
Go for moissanite—it’s bright, beautiful, and far more affordable.
Both lab-grown diamonds and moissanite are strong choices—but moissanite has the edge in eco impact and sourcing transparency.
