1. Moissanite Is Extremely Sparkly
If you like shine and sparkle then you’ll really appreciate the sparkle moissanite engagement rings give off. Moissanite has over twice the sparkle of a diamond!
2. It’s Durable
Moissanite, second only to diamonds are tough and will last over a lifetime! Diamonds are a perfect 10 on Mohs hardness scale, while moissanite is a close second at 9.25-9.5. Moissanite is perfect for jewelry you’re going to wear daily like an engagement ring!
3. It’s Inexpensive
It may seem too good to be true, but moissanite is so affordable costing around 10% or less of what a diamond would cost. My 2 carat sterling sliver oval ring with pave band and hidden halo was only $137!
4. It’s Extremely Rare
Naturally occurring moissanite gemstones are by far the rarest jewel on earth. It’s so rare and found in such small quantities that it wasn’t possible to use in jewelry until the late 1990s when it became possible to recreate it in a lab.
5. It’s Conflict Free
Since moissanite is recreated in a lab it’s conflict free. It takes around 2 to 3 months to create a moissanite gemstone in a lab.
6. It’s Out Of This World
Moissanite was discovered in 1893 by Henri Moissan inside of a meteor crater in Arizona. I’ve heard moissanite referred to as “a gemstone born from the stars”.
7. Get Exactly What You Want Now
With the inexpensive cost of moissanite engagement rings ranging from a few hundred dollars to a few thousand dollars you can get exactly what you want now, instead of settling for a ring you don’t love, or hoping to upgrade your ring sometime in the future.
I decided on this 2 carat sterling silver oval ring with pave band and hidden halo. It’s the ring I’ve been wanting for the past several years, but didn’t want to spend 20K on. My moissanite ring cost only $137 and it will last a lifetime. You an also get this same ring, but with a 14K gold band here for only $495.
