      24 karat gold is 100 % pure gold. It is, however, too soft to be used in most jewelry.

      The common pendant colors of gold are white, yellow, and rose. White gold is the most popular choice for a pendant

    • Platinum
      Platinum is the most pure and precious metals used in jewelry. It is extremely resistant to tarnishing and corrosion and is very soft and malleable.

      The colors for a pendant in platinum is a natural white with a beautiful brilliance.

    The price difference between a platinum and a gold oval pendant is mostly due to the metal's purity level.
    The platinum oval pendant is normally $200 to $500 more expensive than a gold oval pendant since there is more pure platinum in it. Furthermore, it is 66% heavier than 14k gold.

Is Lab-Created Diamonds Suitable for A Pendant?

If you are considering purchasing a pendant in Raleigh, NC, you can rest assured that a moissanite pendant will be the perfect choice.
Here is why so many people are deciding on moissanite over natural diamonds for a pendant in 2023.

  • What is moissanite?

    Moissanite is a natural mineral called silicon carbide, discovered in 1893 in a meteor crater in Arizona by Dr. Henry Moissan.
    Several years later, in a research laboratory, scientists developed the unique process that creates silicon carbide crystals that are so flawless that they match any geniune gemstone.

    It's also significantly more cost-effective than earth diamonds of comparable shapes and sizes, costing roughly 10% of the price. This is why moissanite is considered the best diamond alternative.

  • What is the difference between a natural diamond and a lab-created diamond?

    The major difference between natural diamonds and lab-created diamonds is how they sparkle. Moissanite has a higher refractive index than natural diamond. Moissanite has a refractive index of 2.65 vs 2.42 for diamonds. This means it will give you more brilliance than a mined diamond.

    You will find below a characteristic comparison table between natural diamond and lab-created diamond.

    Characteristics Diamond Lab Diamond
    Brilliance Refraction Index (RI) 2.42 2.65-2.69
    Fire Dispersion 0.044 0.104
    Hardness Mohs Scales 10 9.5

  • Are moissanite pendants tacky looking?

    Moissanite pendants are not at all tacky. Moissanite ranks 9.50 on the Mohs Hardness Scale (when mined diamond ranks 10), which means a moissanite pendant is extremely durable and ideal for daily wear.

  • Do moissanite pendants lose their shine?

    Moissanite pendants will not lose their glitter with time. It is as strong as a natural diamond. Hence it is impossible for a oval pendant to lose or change the color with time.

    Moissanite is a wonderful gemstone that is virtually as hard as a natural diamond. Lab-created diamond, like mined diamond, is eternal.

  • Do moissanite pendants chip easily?

    The MOH scale ranges from a 0 to a 10, with a 10 being the hardest mineral. Moissanite is measured at a 9.5 (in comparison, diamonds have a hardness of 10). This means that moissanite is suitable for everyday use, it does not break nor scratch, and will maintain his sparkle over time.
