Is Moissanite a Good Option for An Engagement Ring?

If you are wondering if moissanite is the right choice for an engagement ring in Gaithersburg, MD, then you can be assured that a round moissanite ring is certainly the best choice.
Know the reasons why so many people prefer moissanite over diamonds for an engagement ring in 2024.

  • What is Moissanite?

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

    It's also way more affordable than diamonds of comparable shapes and sizes, costing approximately 10% of the price. This is why moissanite is considered the best diamond alternative.

  • How do moissanite and diamonds compare?

    The major difference between diamonds and moissanite is how they sparkle. Moissanite has a greater refractive index than diamond. Moissanite has a refractive index of 2.65 over 2.42 for diamonds. This means it will give you more brightness than a diamond.

    You will find below a characteristic comparison table between diamonds and moissanite.

    Toughness Good to Excellent Excellent
  • Are moissanite rings tacky?

    Moissanite rings are not tacky looking. Moissanite ranks 9.50 on the Mohs Hardness Scale (when diamond ranks 10), which means a moissanite ring is highly durable and ideal for daily wear.

  • Does moissanite lose its shine?

    Moissanite will not lose its glitter with time. It is as permanent as a diamond. That is why it is impossible for a round moissanite ring to fade or fade the color over time.

  • Do moissanite rings last lifetime?

    Moissanite is a wonderful gemstone that is virtually as hard as a diamond. Moissanite, just like diamonds, will last forever.

  • Do moissanite rings get scratched easily?

    The MOH scale has a range from 0 to 10, with 10 being the hardest mineral. Moissanite has a hardness of 9.5, while 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.
