    Moissanite is a natural mineral classified as silicon carbide, discovered in 1893 in a meteor crater in Arizona by Dr. Henry Moissan.

  3. Decide on the metal type.

    The two major types of metals used for an engagement ring are platinum and gold.
    The price gap between a platinum and a gold moissanite ring is mostly imputable to the metal's purity level.

    Platinum

    The platinum moissanite ring is usually $500 to $800 more expensive than a gold moissanite ring since there is more pure platinum in it. Also, it is 66% heavier than 14k gold.

    Platinum has a naturally white metal with a beautiful brilliance that enhances the brilliance and shine of diamonds or diamond alternatives.

    Gold

    24 Karat gold is 100 % pure gold. It is, however, too soft to be used in most jewelry. As a result, gold is mixed with other alloys to make it more durable and secure for gemstone settings, such as 18 karat gold (75 % pure gold) and 14 karat gold, which is the most commonly used in fine jewelry (58.3 % pure gold).

  4. Pick the color of the metal band.

    The common engagement ring colors of gold are white, yellow, and rose. White gold is the most popular choice for an engagement ring

  5. Find out the finger size needed.
