Moissanite gemstones are significantly more affordable than mined diamonds. The average savings is roughly 30% for a diamond of similar size and quality.
Diamonds are the hardest known mineral and receive a 10 on the Mohs Scale of Hardness. Because of this exceptional score, diamonds are very durable and ideal for everyday wear. This contributes to their popularity as engagement rings’ center gemstones.
Brilliance
Moissanites exhibit a slightly different brilliance than diamonds do, as their facets are different. Their fiery, rainbow flashes are beloved by many. The larger the moissanite, the more likely it is to notice the difference between diamonds and moissanites.
Diamonds reflect light in three various ways: reflected white light known as brilliance, rainbow colors refracted through a diamond called dispersion, and the famous surface sparkle referred to as scintillation. The combination makes up to the highly recognizable diamond sparkle.
Durability
Moissanite gemstones are rated 9.25 on the Mohs Scale of Hardness making it very suitable for everyday wear.
Mined diamonds are the hardest known mineral on the planet, so, naturally, they’re rated a 10 on the Mohs Scale of Hardness.
