Moissanite is its own gemstone (silicon carbide), not a diamond substitute or imitation — and for many pieces, it's the smarter buy.
How They Compare
- Sparkle — Moissanite has more rainbow "fire" than a diamond; in sunlight it flashes noticeably more color.
- Hardness — Moissanite is 9.25 on the Mohs scale (diamond is 10), so it holds up well in everyday pieces.
- Price — A fraction of a comparable diamond's price.
- Look — Side by side, most people can't tell them apart without a jeweler's tester; moissanite's extra fire is the main giveaway.
Where Moissanite Shines
Studs, tennis bracelets and chains, and any piece where you want maximum sparkle and size for the budget. It's why we offer it as a lock option on our silver Cuban links and in our stud earrings. If you want the classic choice and the certification that comes with it, diamond is diamond — but if sparkle per dollar is the goal, moissanite wins.
