Moissanite is a rare gemstone first discovered in a meteor crater in 1893. It is treasured for its brilliance, fire, and durability, often compared with diamonds but with its own unique sparkle.

Moissanite is a naturally occurring mineral called silicon carbide. Because it is extremely rare in nature, gem-quality moissanites are carefully crafted through advanced processes that replicate the natural crystal structure.

No. Moissanite is highly stable and will not fade, discolor, or lose its sparkle with daily wear. It withstands exposure to heat, light, and most everyday conditions.

With a hardness of 9.25 on the Mohs scale (just below diamond), moissanite is scratch-resistant and exceptionally durable. It will last a lifetime, maintaining its brilliance for generations.

Visually, they are almost indistinguishable to the naked eye. Moissanite has even more fire and brilliance, with a higher refractive index than diamond. The main difference is price—moissanite is far more affordable while still being durable and long-lasting.

No special care is needed. Simply clean it regularly with warm water and mild soap, and avoid long-term contact with harsh chemicals. With minimal maintenance, it will remain as brilliant as new.
