Moissanites

 

What are Moissanites?

Moissanites are a type of gemstone that are becoming increasingly popular as a diamond alternative in jewelry. They are made from silicon carbide, a naturally occurring mineral, which is then synthesized in a laboratory setting to produce gemstones.

Moissanites have a similar appearance to diamonds, but there are a few key differences. They are typically more brilliant and sparkly than diamonds, and they have a different color spectrum, meaning that they may have more color flashes than diamonds. Moissanites also have a higher refractive index than diamonds, which means that they bend light more easily, giving them a unique and eye-catching appearance.

What are the benefits of Moissanite?

One of the main benefits of moissanites is their affordability compared to diamonds. They are generally much less expensive than diamonds of a similar size and quality, which makes them a great option for those who want a beautiful and durable gemstone without breaking the sustainable options they have in mind.
