Square Moissanite Rings In Pembroke Pines, FL

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 perfected the unique process to create silicon carbide crystals that are so pure that they can match any earthly gemstone.

It's also much more affordable than diamonds of similar shapes and sizes, costing only 10% of the price. This is why moissanite is viewed as the best diamond alternative.
