Moissanite is taking the jewelry world by storm, and for good reason. If you love the look of a diamond but want something just as stunning, more affordable, and ethically sourced, moissanite is the perfect choice. At CHOE Jewelers, we’re obsessed with this beautiful gemstone, and we’re sure you will be too.
What is Moissanite?
Moissanite is a rare gemstone originally discovered in a meteor crater by scientist Henri Moissan in 1893. Naturally occurring moissanite is incredibly rare, so today’s moissanite is lab-created to achieve its perfect brilliance while remaining eco-friendly and conflict-free.
How Does Moissanite Compare to Diamonds?
While moissanite looks nearly identical to diamonds, it has its own unique properties that make it stand out:
-
Brilliance & Sparkle – Moissanite actually has more fire and brilliance than diamonds, meaning it reflects more light and sparkles even brighter.
-
Durability – Moissanite ranks 9.25 on the Mohs hardness scale, just below diamonds (10), making it incredibly strong and perfect for everyday wear.
-
Affordability – Moissanite offers the luxury look of a diamond at a fraction of the price, allowing you to get a larger, more dazzling stone for your budget.
-
Ethically Sourced – Unlike many diamonds, moissanite is 100% lab-grown, making it an eco-friendly and conflict-free choice.
