Description
MOISSANITE: Made from silicon carbide, moissanite is a lab-created gem that is often used as a diamond alternative because of its durability, sparkling appearance, and affordable price tag. Moissanite was first discovered in a meteor crater in 1893 by a scientist named Henri Moissan, hence the name Moissanite.
Today, moissanite is extremely rare and almost exclusively growing in laboratories as an alternative to diamonds. Created in a controlled environment with advanced technology, it is easily traceable and requires no mining. This means moissanite has a smaller carbon footprint and lessened environmental impact than a naturally mined gem.
Moissanite is often used as a diamond simulant, being the second most durable gem (9,25 Mohs Scale of hardness). This is why they are a great "diamond" alternative.
Distinguishing moissanite and diamond based on brilliance and fire isn't reliable; unless you have experience in the jewelry industry, you wont be able to tell the difference just based on appearance.
Increasingly popular as an alternative to real and very expensive diamonds, Moissanite is now widely used in jewelry, especially as the center stone of engagement rings.

Moissanite is lab created with minimal environmental impact!!
Moissanite is less expensive per carat than many other gemstones and as beautiful as anyone!!
