All about Moissanite

Moissanite is an Ethical Choice Compared to Many Diamonds

To begin with, moissanite is super cool—it was originally discovered in rock samples from a crater, which is pretty fabulous to begin with. However, and perhaps most importantly, it’s man-made now, which is absolutely a pro as you can be positive it’s created in an ethical and sustainable way. If the ethics of the diamond industry are a concern for you, choosing a moissanite ring might be the perfect way to get that diamond aesthetic you love, but with an unethical background.

Moissanite Sparkles More Than Diamonds

Moissanite is less likely to attract dirt, grease, and debris than a diamond and it’s also extremely “bright,” meaning it reflects white light beautifully and more than an actual diamond. So, if you’re looking to get a ring with a lot of sparkle factor, moissanite actually might even be a better choice than some other gems, including diamonds themselves.

Moissanite Is Comparable to Diamonds in Hardness

Although not technically as hard and therefore scratch-resistant as a diamond, moissanite actually comes pretty close. At a 9.25 on the Mohs scale of mineral hardness, moissanite is second only to diamonds in regards to gems, and is therefore quite difficult to harm or scratch. If you’re comparing the two and want to go with the one that’s more scratch-resistant, both stones are comparable in this arena and would come out pretty close in that competition.

Moissanite Is Cheaper in Price Than Diamonds

Perhaps considered one of the biggest pros of all, it’s no surprise that when it comes to price, moissanite is going to win hands down. It’s significantly less costly than its other precious counterparts, and because it is so aesthetically similar to diamonds, it’s an especially great options for couples who love the diamond look, but don’t love the diamond price tag.

It would be great to state as follows:

Ethically Produced & Sustainable

Tests as a Diamond

Sparkles more than a Diamond

Comparable to Diamonds in hardness (9.25)

Cheaper than Diamonds
