Moissanite Jewelry

Here are some key points about moissanite:

1. Hardness: Both moissanite and diamonds are known for their hardness, but diamonds are the hardest natural material on Earth, ranking 10 on the Mohs scale of mineral hardness, while moissanite is slightly lower at around 9.25.

2. Brilliance: Moissanite exhibits a high level of brilliance and fire, which are the qualities that determine how much a gem sparkles and how it reflects light. Some people even prefer the fire and brilliance of moissanite over diamonds.

3. Color: Diamonds come in various colors, and colorless diamonds are highly valued. Moissanite typically has a different level of color, often displaying a yellow or greenish tint, but colorless moissanite is also available.

4. Cost: Moissanite is generally more affordable than diamonds. This cost difference has led to moissanite becoming a popular alternative for individuals who want a gemstone with characteristics similar to diamonds but at a lower price point.

5. Ethics: Moissanite is a lab-created gemstone, and its production is considered more environmentally friendly than the mining of diamonds, which can have ethical concerns associated with them.

6. Source: While diamonds are mined from the Earth, moissanite is typically produced in laboratories through a controlled process.
