Moissanite is a rare, naturally occurring mineral also known as silicon carbide.

“Is moissanite a diamond?” The answer is no. So what’s the difference between diamonds and moissanite?

While diamonds are created from the compression of coal and minerals over many hundreds of years in the earth, moissanite was originally found in fragments of a meteorite in pieces so small that cutting a single gemstone from them was impossible.

After many years of work, this rare, natural mineral was successfully grown in a lab. Moissanite is one of the most brilliant and beautiful colorless gems, rivaling the traditional beauty of mined diamonds in clarity and size.

Historically, diamonds have been the go-to, traditional, white gems for fine jewelry for their beauty and their rarity, but with a conscientious alternative like moissanite for engagement rings, wedding rings, and other types of jewelry, moissanite stand out as the best gem, outshining diamonds with their brilliance and fire.

Jewelry made in gold with moissanite presents the perfect opportunity to have the look you want without the diamond price tag.
